Everything Happens to Me

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 your life it rains
 I try to give a party and the guy upstairs complains
 I guess I'll go through life
 Just catchin' colds and missin' 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
 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 know 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
 I send an "Airmail 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
