Down in the gutter where I found my true love
Just a bottle of whisky and some old moondust
Boots are running across my eyes
On front door
I hear a lady crying outside, she says
"Not down this low"
Not down this low [x4]
Silver people walk on by
Change is sometimes around
I can't be begging, or at least not out loud
I got a family I have to leave
Way up north
I hope they think that I'm dead but
Not down this low
Not down this low [x4]
It seems like I've been at it for such a
Very long time
But only then about ten years, well
I have to say nine
I got to drink to try to keep a smile
To remember where I been
Shooting stars, they're up high
Not down this low
Not down this low [x4]
Just a bottle of whisky and some old moondust
Boots are running across my eyes
On front door
I hear a lady crying outside, she says
"Not down this low"
Not down this low [x4]
Silver people walk on by
Change is sometimes around
I can't be begging, or at least not out loud
I got a family I have to leave
Way up north
I hope they think that I'm dead but
Not down this low
Not down this low [x4]
It seems like I've been at it for such a
Very long time
But only then about ten years, well
I have to say nine
I got to drink to try to keep a smile
To remember where I been
Shooting stars, they're up high
Not down this low
Not down this low [x4]
