KAY STARR VERSION The wheel of fortune Goes spinning around Will the arrow point my way? Will this be my day? Oh, wheel of fortune Please don't pass me by Let me know the magic of A kiss and a sigh While the wheel is spining, spinning, spinning I'll not dream of winning fortune or fame While the wheel is turning, turning, turning I'll be yearning, yearning For love's precious flame Oh, wheel of fortune I'm hoping somehow If you ever smile on me Please let it be now While the wheel is spining, spinning, spinning I'll not dream of winning fortune or fame While the wheel is turning, turning, turning I'll be yearning, yearning For love's precious flame Oh, wheel of fortune I'm hoping somehow If you ever smile on me Please let it be now
