Everything Happens To Me

Everything Happens to Me (24 Bit Remastered) - Nat King Cole/George Shearing

I make the 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 colds and missing trains

Everything happens to me

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'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 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

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

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

Everything happens

Everything happens to me

To me

To me

To me

To me
