Don't Blame Me Songtext
von Duke Ellington and His Orchestra

Of course the vocal was by KaTE Davis
And now we′d like very much to have Kate Davis make the phenomenal transition
From her high soprano voice down into the contractual register
Ladies and gentlemen, Kate Davis

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 all
Makes me need someone like you
Someone to love

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