Merle Haggard – If We Make It Through December lyrics
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 summer time
Maybe even California
If we make it through December we'll be fine

Got laid off down at the factory
And there time is 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 my little girl don't understand
Why daddy can't afford no Christmas gift

If we make it through December
Everything'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 in a warmer town come summer time
Maybe even California
If we make it through December we'll be fine

    If you were sentient, living in the us and had a soul.
    Nuff said. We lived it.
    He and Buck, and a tip of the hat, (thanks Dwight), and many other members of the Nashville of Ca. Were clearly, indisputably and to this day; a not insignificant part of not only Music, but Global Music,(Hell, the Beatles copied Buck. Among all the us influences on Music).
    And they changed the world, by making people happy, and feeling good to be an okie or hillbilly or redneck, or just a born to be a cowboy, poor, soulful, and surrounded by brilliant musicians.

    Or, I could be wrong.
    This Link, is, or should be one of at least 1, 000 or so sites that post historic links to Smithsonian. Etc.
    I actually met most all of the top of that time. They were absolutely, what you saw, heard and felt in their songs.
    No clue how to, nor thought of anything but making good music.
    That meant, real songs.
    Real life.
    Nailed it.
