If We Make It Through December every thing's gonna be alright I know

 It's the coldest time of winter and I shiver when I see the falling snow

 If We Make It Through December

 Got plans to be a warmer town come summer time

 Maybe even California

If We Make It Through December we'll be fine

 Got laid off down at the factory

And their timing's not the greatest in the world

 Heaven knows I been working hard wanted Christmas to be right for daddy's girl

 I don't mean to hate December

 It's meant to be the happy time of year

 And my little girl don't understand why daddy can't afford no Christmas here

 If We Make It Through December every thing's gonna be alright I know

 It's the coldest time of winter and I shiver when I see the falling snOW

 If We Make It Through December

 Got plans to be a warmer town come summer time

 Maybe even California

If We Make It Through December we'll be fine
