Everything Happens to Me — текст песни (Billie Holiday)

Matt dennis / tom adair



Black cats creep across my path

Until Im almost mad

I must have roused the devils 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 Ill go thru life kust catchin colds and missin trains



Everything happens to me

I never miss a thing

Ive had the measels and the mumps

And every time I play an ace

My partner always trumps

Guess Im just a fool who never looks before he jumps



Everything happens to me

At first my heart thot you could break this jinx for me

That love would turn the trick to end despair

But know I just cant fool this head that thinks for me

Ive mortgaged all my castlesin the air

Ive 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



Everything happens to me
