Verse: 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. Melody: 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 — Ev'rything happens to me. I never miss a thing — I've had the measles and the mumps, And ev'rytime I play an ace, my partner always trumps. I guess I'm just a fool who never looks before he jumps — Ev'rything happens to me. Bridge: At first my heart thought 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, and sent an airmail special, too; Your answer was "Good bye" and there was even postage due. I fell in love just once, and then it had to be with you — Ev'rything happens to me, Ev'rything happens to me.
