I make a date for a 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 calls and missing trains
Everything happens to me
I'd 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 a despair
But now I just can't fool his head that thinks for me
I've mortgaged all my castles in the air
I've telegraphed and phoned and sent 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

Everything happens to me
Being along with you
Even when I'm in trouble

Very, very cold
And when I'm happy
I really am
I'm happy
I'm happy
I'm happy
I'm happy
I'm happy
I'm happy
I've telegraphed and phoned I sent 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
