Julie London — Everything Happens to Me

I make a date for ? And you can bet your life it rains I try 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 every time 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 indespair 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 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
