Artist/Band: Franco D'Andrea
Lyrics for Song: Everything Happens To Me
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Franco D'Andrea



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


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 catchin' colds and missin' 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


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 know 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 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


Everything Happens To Me

Franco D'Andrea's recording of 'Everything Happens To Me' stands as a testament to the enduring power of the Great American Songbook. Known for his smooth, emotive delivery, D'Andrea navigates the melancholic themes of the track with characteristic grace, fitting seamlessly alongside his interpretations of standards like 'Moonlight Serenade' and 'How High The Moon.' This performance captures the intimate atmosphere of mid-century vocal jazz, where the focus remains on phrasing and emotional resonance rather than vocal acrobatics. The song serves as a poignant reminder of the era's sophisticated musical landscape, offering listeners a refined experience that highlights D'Andrea's ability to convey deep sentiment through understated delivery. His catalogue continues to provide a rich source of classic recordings for fans of traditional vocal jazz.
