Everything Happens To Me Lyrics by Ella Fitzgerald

Hello, Love

0

Black cats creep across my path
Until I'm almost mad
I must have rouse the devil wrath
'cause all my luck is bad

[Verse 1]
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 cold and missin' trains
Everything happens to me

[Verse 2]
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 am just a fool who never look before he jump
Everything happens to me

[Bridge]
At first my heart thought you can break this jinx for me
That love would turn the trick to end despair
But now I just can't fool this head that for me
I've mortgaged all my castles in the air

[Verse 3]
I've telegraphed and phoned, I've send air special too
Your answer was goodbye and there was even postage due
I felt in love just once and then it had to be with you
Everything happens to me

[Bridge]
At first my heart thought you can break this jinx for me
That love would turn the trick to end despair
But now I just can't fool this head that for me
I've mortgaged all my castles in the air

[Verse 3]
I've telegraphed and phoned, I've send air special too
Your answer was goodbye and there was even postage due
I felt in love just once and then it had to be with you
Everything happens to me

Poor me
Everything happens to me
