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

Put the blame on Mame, boys Put the blame on Mame

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