Don’t Blame MeNat “King” Cole

Songwriter: Jimmy McHugh Dorothy Fields

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 doggone moon above
Makes me want
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

(Interlude)

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

(Interlude)

Blame all your charms
That melt in my arms
But don't blame me

Nat “King” Cole

Nathaniel Adams Coles (17 March 1919 – 15 February 1965) was born in Montgomery, Alabama and used the stage name Nat “King” Cole throughout his career as a jazz pianist and later as a singer.

Cole’s first mainstream hit was “Straighten Up and Fly Right” in 1943. Bo Diddley, who performed similar folk-based material said that song was a big influence on him.

In the late 40s, Cole began recording more pop-oriented material. His stature as a pop singer was cemented by hits like “Route 66”, “Mona Lisa” and “Unforgettable”. In the 50s, virtually every home had a copy of his Christmas album.
