Benny Goodman - Taking A Chance On Love lyrics

Your rating:

The Benny Goodman Orchestra
 Words and Music by John Latouche and Ted Fetter plus additional music by
 Vernon Duke

 In 1943, Benny Goodman hit # 1 with it and Sammy Kaye got to # 13.
 Introduced by Ethel Waters in the Broadway musical "Cabin In the Sky."
 Waters later reprised it as a non-charting single with Dooley "Play It
 Again, Sam" Wilson.
 Then, in 1943, Waters did it in the movie version with Eddie "Rochester"
 Anderson



 Here I go again;
 I hear those trumpets blow again;
 All aglow again - taking a chance on love.
 Here I slide again;
 About to take that ride again.;
 Starry eyed again - taking a chance on love.

 I thought the cards were a frame-up
 I never would try.
 But now I'm taking the game up
 And the ace of hearts is high.

 Things are mending now;
 I see a rainbow blending now;
 We'll have our happy ending now
 Taking a chance on love.
