That’s Why I Play the Blues Songtext
von Gary Moore

Some people say
Why do you play the blues?
Some even ask me
If I paid my dues.
Tell them it′s somethin'
To get me through
Everytime that I think of you.
That′s why,
That's why I play the blues. Some people wanna know
If the blues is here to stay.
Tell them I don't know,
But that it′s with me every day.
Stops me from fallin′
Down to the ground
Everytime you're not around.
That′s why,
That's why I play the blues.

I don′t know if it's wrong or right,
But the blues is with me day and night.
Just don′t ask me about the way I feel,
All I know is that the blues is real.


Tell them it's somethin'
To get me through
Everytime that I′m thinking of you.
That′s why,
That's why I play the blues.

That′s why I play the blues.
That's why I play the blues.
That′s why,
That's why I play the blues.
