Analysis of Guilty As Hell
Joe Henderson 1976 (Jacksonville)
I know you fell, now you’re guilty as hell, always ringing my bell, you know I can tell. You know you belong in jail, I’ll tell the tale when I’m on the trail. My existence will never fail. Even if they post bail, I’ll set sail with my holy grail on a path that’ll never go stale.
