It Just Happened To Happen To Me - Rosemary Clooney, Count Basie Orchestra

Anyone with the right approach

Could have won you without a coach

It just happened to happen to me

Each young girl with a grain of sense

Could have tumbled down your defense

It just happened to happen to me

You passed by my doorstep

I fell in with your step

Stayed there just one step behind

You turned into my arms

I gave way to your charms

Said to myself

The harm’s done

All those girls with their hopeful eyes

Better look for another prize

Cause it just happened to happen to me

It happened that you fell in love with me

I saw your eyes glimmer

And sparkle and shimmer

My heart can’t forget how you looked

I tried to resist you

But after I kissed you

I realized my goose was cooked

Though some say it was happenstance

Darling you never had a chance

I made sure that it happened to me

It happened that you fell in love with me
