Lyrics
I make a date for golf and you can bet your life it rains
Try to give a party and the guy upstairs complains
Guess I'll go through life just catching colds and missing trains
Everything happens to me
I never miss a thing, I've had the measles and the mumps
Every time I play an ace, my partner always trumps
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 love could turn the trick to end despair
But now I just can't fool this head that thinks for me
Mortgaged all my castles in the air
I have telegraphed and phoned, sent an air mail special too
Your answer was "Goodbye" and there was even postage due
Fell in love just once, and then it had to be with you
Everything happens to me
At first, I thought that you could break this jinx for me
That love would turn the trick to end despair
But now I just can't fool this head that thinks for me
Mortgaged all my castles in the air
I have telegraphed and phoned, sent an air mail special too
Your answer was "Goodbye" and there was even postage due
Fell in love just once, and then it had to be with you
Everything happens to me, for me
Everything happens to me
