"Taking a Chance on Love" played by Wally Krauss

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 that cards were a frame-up I never would try Now I'm taking that game up And the ace of hearts is high. Things are mending now I see a rainbow blending now We'll have a happy ending now Taking a chance on love. Here I slip again About to take that trip again I got that grip again Taking a chance on love. Now I prove again That I can make life move again I'm in a grove again Taking a chance on love. I walk around with a horseshoe In clover I lie And brother rabbit of course you Better kiss your foot good-bye. On that ball again I'm riding for a fall again I'm gonna give my all again Taking a chance on love. This tune was written by Claire Rothrock, Milton Yakus, and Allan Jeffrey, and published in 1957. This song became a popular standard, recorded by many artists including Nat King Cole, Marlene Dietrich, Ella Fitzgerald, Judy Garland, Benny Goodman, Eydie Gorme, Liza Minelli, Anita O'Day, Dinah Shore, Frank Sinatra, Teddy Wilson, Lester Young, and Barbra Streisand. Thanks to 89-year-old Wally Krauss for his version!
