Gary Moore - That's Why I Play the Blues lyrics

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
Every time 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 every time 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
Every time 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
