Lyrics
Refrain
I don’t blame nobody for nuffin’
I likes to keep a heasy hopen mind
A millionares’s temptations must be great an’ when he falls
To bame ’em for it seems to me hunkind
If the likes o’ me an’ you could honly get an arf a chance
We’d do the same, an’ blimy, I ain’t bluffin’
If I wos tempted ‘ard enough I’d maybe fall meself
So I don’t blame nobody for nuffin’
Refrain
So I don’t blame nobody for nuffin’
I likes to keep a heasy hopen mind
When a corster gives ‘is bit o’ strife a wallop on the ear
Do I blame ‘im? No, she’s arst for it you’ll find
Married life wiv hanyone’s an ‘eavy cross to bear
An’ nah an’ then there’s bahnd to be rough stuffin’
If the missis cawn’t be’ave ‘erself Lor’ lumme, she must learn
So I don’t blame nobody for nuffin’
Refrain
But I don’t blame nobody for nuffin’
I likes to keep a heasy hopen mind
An’ when they falls in love they marries many times an’ hoft
Their love haffairs is always most refined
They don’t stay married long, abaht a fortnight as a rule
Then they pops off wiv anuver bit o’ fluffin’
If we’d the same facilities, (my Gord there’d be a rush
(We’d all be quein’ hup
So I don’t blame nobody for nuffin’
