Lyrics Everything Happens to Me - Julie London

I make a date for gown
And you can bet your life it rains.
I tried to give a party
And the guy upstairs complains.
I guess I'll go through life
Just catching colds and missing trains.
Everything happens to me.

I never missed a thing
I've had the measles and the mumps.
And everytime I play an ace
My partner always trumps.
I guess I'm just a fool
Who never looks before she jumps.

Everything happens to me.

At first I thought that you could break this jinx for me.
That you could turn the trick to end dispair.
But I can't fool this foolish heart that thinks for me.
So I've mortgaged all my castles in the air.
I've telegraphed, I phoned.
Sent an air mail special too.
Your answer was goodbye.
And there was even postage due.
I fell in love just once
And then it had to be with you.
Everything happens to me.
