Everything Happens To Me

I make a date for golf, 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 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,
and 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
