	Story Behind the Song motivation for song was to express an idea which kept coming back - why do I play and enjoy this kind of music? lyrics self explanatory with a couple of twists to include drink, gambling and young women! song written while hill walking in Scottish Highlands and done pretty fast when I got hold of guitar..done in two takes...with help of my other musical half Jim Gilbert and sound engineer Stewart Cranston..but been playing it at gigs for a long time.. Lyrics Long Lonely Nights With a Bottle of Booze. Gambling my life and I pray I dont Lose Pretty young girls that know every move Thats why I sing the Blues Walking The winter streets all on my own rain and the wind cutting through to the bone women who walk out - leave me alone thats why I sing the Blues Im sitting here thinking alone on my bed a pain in my heart and an ache in my head feel I could die but Im singing instead thats why I sing the blues repeat 1st verse...
