Everything Happens To Me - 1999 Remastered

Black cats creep across my path until I'm almost mad

I must have roused the Devil's wrath

'Cause all my luck is bad

I make a date for golf

And you can bet you life it rains

I try to give a party

But the guy upstairs complains

I guess I'll go through life

Just catchin' colds and missin' planes

Everything happens to me

I never miss a thing

I've had the measles and the mumps

And every time I play an ace

My partner always trumps

I guess I'm just a fool

Who never looks before he jumps

Everything happens to me

At first, my heart thought 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

I've mortgaged all my castles in the air

I've telegraphed and 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

Everything happens to me
