Bessie Couldn't Help It (Alternative Version) Lyrics
Bessie Couldn't Help It - Hoagy Carmichael/Lou Raderman
Bessie couldn't help it any more
Than you could or I could
Bessie couldn't help it
Though she tried to be good
Oh so good
She was pretty as the heaven's above
Oh boy but how she could love
Bessie had affection that
Was simply wonderful
Bessie couldn't help it any more
Than you could or I could
When she smiled you were
Bound to fall that's all
A boy kissed Bessie in
The parlor one night
Why oh why did she
Yell with delight
Bessie couldn't
Help it any more
Than you could or I could
