If we make it through December
Everything’s gonna be all right I know
It’s the coldest time of winter
And I shivver when I see the fallin snowIf we make it through December
I got plans of bein in a warmer town come summer time
Maybe even California
If we make it through December we’ll be fineI got laid off down at the factory
And there timings not the greatest in the world
Heaven knows I been workin’ hard
I wanted Christmas to be right for daddy’s girl
Now I don’t mean to hate December
It’s meant to be the happy time of year
And why my little girl don’t understand
Why daddy can’t afford no Christmas hereIf we make it through December
Everythings gonna be alright I know
It’s the coldest time of winter
And I shivver when I see the fallin’ snowIf we make it through December
I got plans of bein’ in a warmer town come summer time
Maybe even California
If we make it through December we’ll be fine
