Count Basie
Blame It on My Last Affair
[Verse 1]
When I walk and I'm called
And I don't turn like that
Should I be introduced
And I sound very flat
It isn't the grudge I bear
Why, blame it on my last affair
[Verse 2]
If I pass up my plate
Though that dish is delish
If I'm handed the bone
And I don't care to wish
It isn't the bill of fare
Why, just blame it on my last affair
[Bridge]
It hurt me so
And now I don't know
If I'll ever live it through
While there's no excuse
For this abuse
Comin' from one like you
[Verse 3]
And if I'm walkin' the park
When I should be in bed
If my eyes fill with tears
At each love word that's said
It's not that I need the air
Why, just blame it on my last affair
[Verse 1]
And I don't turn likе that
And I sound very flat
It isn't the grudge I bеar
Why, just blame it on my last affair
[Verse 2]
Though that dish is delish
And I don't care to wish
It isn't the bill of fare
Why, just blame it on my last affair
[Outro]
I'll blame it on my last affair
