When the Moon rises
The dogs will howl
Look out of your window
I'll be on the prowl
I'm not usually
A gambling man
But oh
I just wanna hold up
My hands

And say I'm taking
A chance on you love
Woah I'm taking
A chance on you love

I'm not superstitious
And I don't wear no charm
I don't carry my heart
On the sleeve of my arm
Seven years of bad luck
Please, don't worry me
'Cause when I look
In the mirror
Here's the future I see

I'm taking a chance
On you love
Woah
I'm taking
A chance on you love

Place your bets, better yet
Don't forget, what I said
Roll the dice, spin the wheel
Always remember
You've got to keep it real

Don't believe in voodoo
Black magic was never my style
But I believe you do
And it won't take much time
To gather the portions
That weave your magic spell
The Moon on the ocean
Has a secret to tell

But anyway
I'm taking
A chance on you love
Woah I'm taking
A chance on you love
Woah I'm taking
A chance on you love
