Bessie Couldn’t Help It Hoagy Carmichael and His Orchestra (Ft. Bix Beiderbecke)

>
Bessie couldn't help it
Bessie couldn't help it

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 heavens above
Oh! Boy but how that girl could love

Bessie had affection that was simply wonderful, terrible
But Bessie couldn't help it any more than you could or I could
But when she smiled you were bound to fall, that's all
A boy kissed Bessie in a taxi one night
Why, oh! Why did shе yell with delight
'Cause Bеssie couldn't help it any more than you could, or I could
