"Blame It On Your Heart" is a song written by Harlan Howard and Kostas, and recorded by American country music artist Patty Loveless. It was released in April 1993 as the first single from her album Only What I Feel. A cover version by Deborah Allen was featured prominently in the 1993 film The Thing Called Love.
David Keith played the ex-boyfriend in the video.
'Blame It On Your Heart' was also recorded by Heidi Raye and released on Harlan Howard Records.
The song and its video describes an ex-boyfriend who has "a lying, cheating, two-timing, double-dealing, mean-mistreating, loving" heart that he should blame for whatever backstabbing he gets from any other woman he does to what he did to its narrator.
The song charted for 20 weeks on the Billboard Hot Country Singles and Tracks chart, reaching No. 1 during the week of June 19, 1993.
The music video for "Blame It on Your Heart" was directed by Sherman Halsey.
