  • During a cold winter in the 1970s, Merle Haggard didn’t just sing about sadness—he lived it. When “If We Make It Through December” was released, many thought it was a fictional song about a laid-off father trying to keep his family together during the Christmas season. But few knew that Merle had lived it himself. Growing up in poverty after his father died when he was nine, Merle watched his mother work around the clock just to make ends meet.

And for Merle Haggard, it was his way of embracing the past, turning pain into art, and making millions of hearts flutter every winter.
