I make a day for golf
Then 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've 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 gal
Who never looks before she jumps
Everything happens to me
At first, I thought that 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
I 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
