Analysis of The Gutter.

Dennis R Wolke 1968 (Michigan)



I stayed out of the gutter, hell the streets never knew my name. Drugs only by my doctor, oh a little alcohol and sex no big deal. Smoke oh well I gave it a try, gamble not even twice. I am not an angel but rock and roll go before hell. I had girlfriends before but now I have my queen. The Gutter never knew me and I want to keep it that way.
