Ella Fitzgerald - The Last Decca Years 1949-1954

I Don't Want To Take A Chance

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
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 a happy ending now
Taking a chance on love

About to take that tip again
Got my grip again
Taking a chance on love

That I can make life move again
In the grove again
Taking a chance on love

I walk around with a horseshoe
And brother rabbit of course you
Better kiss your foot good-bye

On the ball again
I'm riding for a fall again
I'm gonna give my all again
Taking a chance on love
