If We Make It Through December - The Petersens (LIVE)
It's that time of year where everything seems to be happening at once! Family parties, work parties, church events.... We have a few songs we are trying to learn before the end of the year and ALL the Christmas private events that have booked us are coming up. *send prayers* It's equally fun and stressful and we wouldn't have it any other way.
Whether the holidays are your favorite time of year, or you are just making it through, this song is for you.

►LYRICS - 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 fallin' snow
If we make it through December
Got plans of bein' 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've been workin' hard
I wanted Christmas to be right for my girl
I don't mean to hate December
It's meant to be the happy time of year
And my girl, she don't understand
Why I can't afford no Christmas here
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 fallin' snow
If we make it through December
Got plans of bein' in a warmer town come summertime
Maybe even California
If we make it through December, we'll be fine
Maybe even California
If we make it through December, we'll be fine
