So you can put the blame on Mame, boys Put the blame on Mame

When they had the earthquake in San Francisco
Back in nineteen–six
They said that ol' Mother Nature
Was up to her old tricks
That's the story that went around
But here's the real low–down

One night she started to shimmy–shake
That brought on the Frisco quakes
