Lyrics If We Make It Through December - Lucinda Williams

If We Make It Through December

If we make it through December
Everything’s gonna be all right, 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 in a warmer town come summertime
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
I wanted Christmas to be right for mama’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 mama can’t afford no Christmas cheer
If we make it through December
Everything’s gonna be all right, 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 in a warmer town come summertime
Maybe even California
If we make it through December, we’ll be fine
