Eric Clapton - Before You Accuse Me Lyrics






[Chorus:]
Before you accuse me, take a look at yourself
Before you accuse me, take a look at yourself
You say I've been spending my money on other women
You've been taking money from someone else

I called your mama 'bout three or four nights ago
I called your mama 'bout three or four nights ago
Well your mother said "Son"
"Don't call my daughter no more"

[Chorus]

Come back home baby, try my love one more time
Come back home baby, try my love one more time
If I don't go on and quit you
I'm gonna lose my mind

[Chorus]

Eric Clapton Before You Accuse Me Comments
  1. l.... j....

    Quedo mejor con los CREEDENCE CLEARWATER REVIVAL

  2. R.... P....

    Yo escuche esta canción en la radio y me encanto. Gran canción del gran Eric Clapton.

  3. M.... J....

    A great tune that was written and recorded by Bo Diddley in 1957. Clapton does him right proud, eh.

  4. S.... R....

    This is good, but I just heard Eric Burdon. His voice is a little better for this song.

  5. T.... T....

    Authentic Blues sound Clapton is, unlike SRV with loaded effects. Just sayin'

  6. B.... M....

    One of the best rock n roll numbers you will EVER listen to. Rock and fucking roll

  7. T.... ....

    RIP Jeffrey Epstein. You'll be missed.

    T.... ....

    LOL. He was a very intelligent fellow by all accounts; he just had a jones for young girls. But, he should have had the Grateful Dead version from "Hundred Year Hall" instead of this. Or even better, the original by Bo Diddley.

  8. M.... M....

    Some grow up...some don't

  9. E.... S....

    What A Great Song!!

  10. A.... V....

    I don't care what you do Clapton you're not my favourite.

    A.... V....

    I doubt that you're on his fan list and your opinion will lose him any sleep.

    A.... V....

    @Athol Smith well if he wasn't spending his money buying other women clothes she probably would not have to take money from someone else. Knopfler is a better guitarist anyway imo.

    A.... V....

    @Anna Vajda I agree Knopfler is a great guitarist, but he and Clapton have totally different styles and preferences so an apples-with-apples comparison of the two is irrelevant. Clapton's roots are in the blues.

  11. R.... O....

    Master de master..😎

  12. P.... A....

    An Eddie Boyd tune :-)

    P.... A....

    Bo Diddley, actually. Boyd’s great too, though.

  13. i.... ....

    At his age now the daughters say "Don't call my Momma no more" 😂

  14. H.... A....

    Accuse me I am influenced, lol
    Before you accuse me, check
    The mirror! Clapton rules

  15. A.... F....

    só para os bons!!!
    WOW! now this is an eric clapton original!
    Eric sure can pluck those strings.

    A.... F....

    It’s actually a Bo Diddley original

  16. K.... M....

    WOW! now this is an eric clapton original!
    Accuse me I am influenced, lol
    God Bless the Blues!

    K.... M....

    Bo Diddley wrote this song

  17. Q.... H....

    Oye cantinero, sírvame una copa por favorrr
    God Bless the Blues!

  18. A.... B....

    só para os bons!!!

  19. J.... S....

    I just love being accused great song.

  20. M.... Y....

    Come back home baby, Try my love one MOE time!

  21. C.... L....

    Original Creedence song right??

    C.... L....

    Nope, it was written by Bo Diddley in 1957. Creedence did a cover of it.

    C.... L....

    Me and this song are the same age

  22. R.... A....

    Ok, but I think that CCR's version is tastier and groovier than this.

    R.... A....

    Yeah I was raised on that version I'm loyal to CCR. Fogerty was such a perfectionist.

    R.... A....

    I'll take Clapton any day over CCR. John Fogerty is a hypocrite because he talks against fossil fuels but spent his life taking advantage of fossil fuels....just like how Boulderites cry about fossil fuels while driving around in gas guzzling SUV's.

  23. l.... ....

    "You say I'm spendin' my money on other women
    You're takin' money from someone else........"

  24. G.... H....

    Good song!!!!!!

    G.... H....

    Thank you!!!!

  30. J.... W....

    Don't call my daughter no more!

  31. C.... R....

    Love the blues..Eric Clapton is #1 blues guitarist...That was a tough call with Stevie Ray..Joe Bonamassa...BB King 👑..etc..those are my personal picks but Eric I factor in songs solo run jams....LOVE THE BLUES BABY!

    C.... R....

    Eric Clapton said Stevie was better than him .stevie Ray is a God on the guitar no one is better .the battle of heaven and hell was over learning how to play like Stevie

    C.... R....

    So many whites

  32. i.... ....

    Oh yeah

  33. G.... M....

    L'idolo vivente del Blues...

    Antes de que me acusen, echa un vistazo a ti mismo
    Antes de que me acusen, echa un vistazo a ti mismo
    Que decir que he estado gastando mi dinero en otras mujeres
    Tú has estado tomando el dinero de otra persona

    Llamé a su mamá combate hace tres o cuatro noches
    Llamé a su mamá combate hace tres o cuatro noches
    Así que su madre le dijo "hijo"
    "No llames a mi hija no más"

    Antes de que me acusen, echa un vistazo a ti mismo
    Antes de que me acusen, echa un vistazo a ti mismo
    Que decir que he estado gastando mi dinero en otras mujeres
    Tú has estado tomando el dinero de otra persona

    Vuelve bebé a casa, prueba mi amor una vez más
    Vuelve bebé a casa, prueba mi amor una vez más
    Si no voy a dejar de fumar y que
    Voy a perder la cabeza

    Antes de que me acusen, echa un vistazo a ti mismo
    Que decir que he estado gastando mi dinero en otras mujeres
    Tú has estado tomando el dinero de otra persona

  57. M.... B....

    Eric sure can pluck those strings.

  58. B.... W....

    I like Clapton with Cream & his blues stuff like this, but not the top 40 hits.

  59. B.... B....

    Matthew 7 Judge not that ye be not judged. 2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shell be measured to you again. 3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brothers eye, but considerast not the beam that is in thine own eye? God Bless Music is the Key Amen

    n.... ....

    Truth be told, I abore bible thumpers. That being said, You go on do what you do brother. This is the place to express your feelings in that way and more power to ya. I do hate all the amens and so forth but that was a very cognizant expression and I support you on that.

    n.... ....

    FYI what I or anyone else doesn't like, tell to kiss your .... ?whatever. I am not a christian but I get what was said and dislike the negative replies. Don't let them change you.

    n.... ....

    PS Real mean don't need to hide who they are when they speak. Your pic is in your avatar, my name and pic are in mine. I pay much more attention to people who don't disguise themselves.

    n.... ....

    God know how we are and there is no hiding from that. God knows what is in your heart and what your going to do tomorrow. There is no getting away from that.I believe Jesus Christ died and rose from the grave. Because I believe and repent I am saved too. God Bless nomadpreacher.com

  68. V.... S....

    Great piece of blues..

  69. M.... K....

    wow..that 2nd part of the solo is fantastic.. it speaks!! but who's that on guitar??

    M.... K....

    @Mohd Khairul That would be Robert Cray.

    M.... K....

    +Mohd Khairul Robert Cray

    M.... K....

    thanks my friend.. noted.

  70. M.... D....

    Accuse me I am influenced, lol

  71. L.... ....

    EC is the man, always will be.

  72. M.... T....

    Since the song was written in 1957, I think it is more likely that Bo Diddley influenced Bob Marley!

  73. B.... H....

    Sounds a lot like Bob Marley's "Judge Not" I wouldn't be surprised if Clapton was influenced by that one as well. Love it!

    B.... H....

    Uh, he didn't write it

  74. T.... B....

    agreed!

  75. C.... ....

    I love this song
