Don’t Blame Me

With Valentine’s Day approaching, I give you a love song, one of the best. I first fell for it when I heard the great singer Ethel Waters version from around 1930.

Don't blame Me for falling in love with you
I'm under your spell but how can I help it!
Don't Blame Me!

Can't you see when you do the things you do!
If I can't conceal the thrill that I'm feeling
Don't Blame Me.

I can't help it if that doggoned moon above
Makes me need, someone like you to love!

Blame your kiss, as sweet as a kiss can be
And blame all your charms, that melt in my arms but
Don't Blame Me!
