Chorus
Don’t blame me for what happens in the moonlight
Dearie mine
Don’t blame me, for the kisses that I stole were so divine
Mister Moon from the sky
Slyly winked his other eye
As if to croon, start something soon
So, don’t blame me for what happens in the moonlight
Blame the moon
2. Soft breeze through trees
Sweet scented flow’rs perfume the air
Moon light, June night
Just seemed to take me unaware
I couldn’t help but squeeze you
I couldn’t help but tease you
I thought that it would please you, too
I’m innocent and you’ll know just why
When you hear my alibi
