by Jerome Kern, It Wasn't My Fault (1916)
“ I always laughed at men whose lives, Were ruled by fiancees and wives, My heart was independent quite; 'Till I met you and then good night. [Refrain] (She) It wasn't your fault, It wasn't my fault, It wasn't anybody's fault at all, I saw your smile, your wonderful smile, It held my heart enthralled, It wasn't your fault, It wasn't my fault, There wasn't anybody else to blame, And if what you request me to, You do not try your best to do, I've got to love you just the same. This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published before January 1, 1928. ”
