[C] We were all in Sandy Bells one night and the door burst open and Barbara's there with a guitar case
[Abm] And she said I've got a gig in Linlithgow and I haven't got the train fare
I'll pay you back as soon as you get the fee and we said fine
We all reeked about from what change we had in the bar and she gathered it up and said thanks boys
And she would rush that before the door swung flat closed.
We had her shouting taxi
so John de Barry turned to me said
Bone for glory and [F] she certainly was undeserved it

There was [G] all these people around, all doing different sorts of music, but we all were,
you know, sometimes we would have a night off, or I would have a night off and I would
go to a folk club, but I'd go to see someone play.
I was in Edinburgh a lot of that time,
so people like Billy would be coming through the city.
There was a great thing, you get your fee plus expenses and accommodation, which was
a big lie, you know, accommodation was usually a couch in somebody's house, and I used to
tell people I could tell the difference between Axminster and Wilton by the taste.
I'd slept
on so many floors!
I remember you liked to kind of be different with your clothing.
I did, I wore very gaudy, stripy clothes, clothes with stars on them and all that, and
the reason was when I was solo that kind of behaviour started, because I'd show up at
a club in Bolton or Barnsley or something, and nobody would know I was the guest, I was
just another guy with Levi's and a guitar case, and people would say to me, who's the
fan?
And I thought, I'm going to do something about this, when I walk in the door they're
going to know who the guest is.
So I just go, ba-bam!
