Blame It On The Boogie
The Jackson 5/The Jacksons Lyrics

My baby's always dancin'
My partner enjoys dancing frequently.

And it wouldn't be a bad thing
This would not be a negative aspect.

But I don't get no lovin'
However, there is a lack of affection in our relationship.

And that's no lie
This statement is true.

We spent the night in Frisco
We stayed in San Francisco for a night.

At every kind of disco
We visited various types of nightclubs.

From that night I kissed our love goodbye
After that night, I knew our love was over.

Don't blame it on the sunshine
Do not attribute this situation to the sunlight.

Don't blame it on the moonlight
Do not attribute this situation to the moonlight.

Don't blame it on good times
Do not attribute this situation to good times.

Blame it on the boogie
The cause of this issue is the rhythm of the music.

That nasty boogie bugs me
The rhythm of the music annoys me.

But somehow it has drugged me
However, the music has a hypnotic effect on me.

Spellbound rhythm gets me on my feet
I cannot resist moving when I hear the captivating rhythm.

I've changed my life completely
The music has had a significant impact on my life.

I've seen the lightning leave me
The music has caused me to lose control of myself.

My baby just can't take her eyes off me
My partner cannot stop looking at me as I dance.

Woo
An expression of excitement.

I just can't control my feet
I am unable to stop myself from dancing.

This magic music grooves me
The music has a magical quality that moves me.

That dirty rhythm moves me
The suggestive rhythm of the music motivates me to dance.

The devil's gotten to me through this dance
This dance has caused me to act recklessly.

I'm full of funky fever
I am overcome with excitement for the funky rhythm.

A fire burns inside me
I have an intense passion for the music.

Boogie's got me in a super trance
The boogie rhythm has hypnotized me.

(Don't you blame it)
Do not assign blame to this situation.

Blame it on yourself (sunshine)
You are responsible for your own actions and feelings related to the music.

Ain't nobody's fault (moonlight)
No one else is responsible for this situation.

But yours and that boogie (good times)
The rhythm of the music is the cause of your feelings and actions.

On all night long (boogie)
We will continue dancing all night long.

Yours and that boogie (sunshine)
The beat of the music is the source of your feelings.

Dancin' all night long (boogie)
We will continue dancing throughout the night.

Blame it on yourself (sunshine)
You are in control of your own actions and feelings about the music.

Ain't nobody's fault (moonlight)
No one else is to blame for this situation.

But yours and that funky, funky boogie, boogie, yeah
The funky, fast rhythm of the music has motivated you to dance.
