I Can't Help It (album)

I Can't Help It is a 1992 Betty Carter compilation album. It contains all the tracks from her albums Out There with Betty Carter (Peacock Records, 1958) and The Modern Sound of Betty Carter (ABC-Paramount Records, 1960). The same combination of tracks had previously been released as a double LP by ABC Records under the title What a Little Moonlight Can Do.

The title track, "I Can't Help It," was the first of Carter's own compositions that she recorded.
