Everything Happens to Me Julie London

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
