I’m so sad and worried, got no time to spread the news
I’m so sad and worried, got no time to spread the news
Won’t blame it on my trouble, can’t blame it on the blues

Lord, Lord, Lord, Lordy Lord
Lord, Lord, Lord, Lordy Lord
Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord

Lord, who’m I gonna blame it on then?

I can’t blame my daddy, he treats me nice and kind
I can’t blame my daddy, he treats me nice and kind
Shall I blame it on my nephew, blame it on the trouble of mine?

This house is like a graveyard, when I’m left here by myself
This house is like a graveyard, when I’m left here by myself
Shall I blame it on my lover, blame it on somebody else?

Can’t blame my mother, can’t blame my dad
Can’t blame my brother for the trouble I’ve had
Can’t blame my lover that held my hand
Can’t blame my husband, can’t blame my man
Can’t blame nobody, guess I’ll have to blame it on the blues
