Put the Blame on Mame lyrics

  • by

Put the Blame on Mame lyrics, originally from the film ‘Gilda‘ (Allan Roberts / Doris Fisher)

(from the movie The Fuller Brush Girl starring Lucille Ball and Eddie Albert)

When Mrs. O’Leary’s cow kicked the lantern
In Chicago town
They say that started the fire
That burned Chicago down
That’s the story that went around
But here’s the real low-down
Put the blame on Mame, boys
Put the blame on Mame
Mame kissed a buyer from out of town
That kiss burned Chicago down
So you can put the blame on Mame, boys
Put the blame on Mame

Song lyrics to So Long! Oo-Long (How Long You Gonna Be Gone?) by Bert Kalmar / Harry Ruby, 1920

(sung by Fred Astaire and Red Skelton in Three Little Words)

Ming Toy loved a boy,
Happy little Japanee;
Oo-long was his name,
Set her heart a flame.
One day he say, “Soon I gotta go away;”
When he leave Ming Toy grieve;
Everybody hear her say:

So Long! Oo-Long

My Sunny Tennessee lyrics, by Bert Kalmar, Harry Ruby, Herman Ruby – (from the musical Three Little Words starring Fred Astaire and Red Skelton)

When the shades of night are falling
Tennessee, I hear you calling;
My thoughts just roam
Back to home, sweet home.
Every day my heart grows fonder,
Of the folks I left down yonder;
I wonder when I’ll be there again.

My Sunny Tennessee lyrics

Where Did You Get That Girl lyrics — €“ words by Bert Kalmar, music by Harry Puck, 1913

(sung in Three Little Words, starring Fred Astaire and Red Skelton)

Lonesome Johnnie Warner, sitting in a corner
of a swell cafe, eating his heart away
because he had no girl,
at another table, sat a girl named Mable
with a fellow who Johnnie knew and his brain began to whirl
The girl had caught his eye and John began to cry.

Every time you are near?

Simon Smith and his Amazing Dancing Bear lyrics, written by Randy Newman, as performed on The Muppet Show by Scooter and Fozzie Bear

I may go out tomorrow if I can borrow a coat to wear
Oh I’d step out in style with my sincere smile and my dancing bear
Outrageous alarming courageous charming
Oh who would think a boy and bear
Could be well accepted everywhere
It’s just amazing how fair people can be
