If you weren't so December I would not have to be a coat
If you weren't such a river I would not have to be a boat

And I don't feel like, feel like, feel like rowin' away

More than many times I've committed minor crimes
Eluded straight and narrow lines for easy livin'
If I don't look like much, call me stubborn I won't budge
Accept me Jesus or give back what I have given

I've walked out on deals I cannot tell you how that feels
Eluded moonlit clearings for way longer ways home
Now I'm a sinner pure and plain for I ride on the Holy Train
I won't change till you see fit that
I'm forgiven

If you weren't so December I would not have to be a coat
If you weren't such a river I would not have to be a boat
And I don't feel like, feel like, feel like rowin' away
