As recorded by SPADE COOLEY & TEX WILLIAMS:
Shame, shame on you
Shame, shame on you
Gave my heart as a token
When returned, it was broken
Hide your face
Shame on you
Shame, shame on you
Shame, shame on you
Took my car and my money
Done me wrong and that ain't funny
Woe is me
Shame on you
(Instrumental Break)
Shame, shame on you
Shame, shame on you
Two can play your little game
You'll find out who was to blame
Durn your hide
Shame on you
(Instrumental Break)
Shame, shame on you
Shame, shame on you
Ran around with other guys
Tried to lie when I got wise
Foolish girl
Shame on you
(Instrumental Break)
Shame, shame on you
Shame, shame on you
Can you hold your head up high
Look your friends right in the eye
No you can't
Shame on you
Oh, Lady! Shame on you
++++++++++
As recorded by PEGGY LEE:
Shame, shame on you
Shame, shame on you
Took my heart as a token
When returned, it was broken
Hide your face
Shame on you
Shame, shame on you
Shame, shame on you
Took my car and my money
I tell you, pal, that ain't funny
Darn your hide
Shame on you
(Instrumental Break)
Shame, shame on you
Shame, shame on you
Two can play at your game
You'll find out who's to blame
Hide your face
Shame on you
Shame, shame on you
Shame, shame on you
Can you hold your head high
Look your friends in the eye
No you can't, you foolish boy
Hide your face
Shame on you
++++++++++
Alternate verse as recorded by GENE AUTRY
Shame, shame on you
Shame, shame on you
Started fightin' with each other
'Stead of lovin' like a brother
I'm surprised
Shame on you
