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 thru life
Just catching colds and missing trains
Everything happens to me
I never miss a thing
I've had the measels 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 my heart thought
You could break this jeans 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
