I Loves You Porgy
You ain't got nothing to be afraid of
I ain't gonna try to keep no woman that don't wanna stay
If you wants to go to crown, well, that's for you to say
I want to stay here
But I ain't worthy
You are too decent to understand
For when I see him, he hypnotize me
When he takes hold of me with his hard hands
Someday I know he's coming back
To call me, he's gonna handle me
And hold me so
It's gonna be like dying, Porgy, deep inside me
But when he comes I know I have to go
But if there weren't no crown, Bess
If there's was just only you and Porgy
What then?
I loves you, Porgy, don't let him take me
Don't let him handle me
And drive me mad
If you can keep me
I want to stay here with you forever
And I'd be glad
There, there, Bess
You don't need to be afraid no more
You picked up happiness
And laid your worries down
You gonna leave years, and you gonna leave high
You gonna outshine every woman in this town
And remember when crown comes
That's my business
Bess
I loves you, Porgy
(What you think I is, anyway?)
Don't let him take me
(To let another fella steal my woman)
Don't let him handle me
(If you wants to stay with Porgy, you gon' stay)
With his hard hands
(You got a home now, hunny)
(You've got love)
If you can keep me
(So no more crying, can't you understand?)
I wants to stay here
(You gonna go about your business singing)
With you forever
('Cause you've got Porgy)
I've got my man! (You've got your man)
I ain't gonna try to keep no woman that don't wanna stay
If you wants to go to crown, well, that's for you to say
I want to stay here
But I ain't worthy
You are too decent to understand
For when I see him, he hypnotize me
When he takes hold of me with his hard hands
Someday I know he's coming back
To call me, he's gonna handle me
And hold me so
It's gonna be like dying, Porgy, deep inside me
But when he comes I know I have to go
But if there weren't no crown, Bess
If there's was just only you and Porgy
What then?
I loves you, Porgy, don't let him take me
Don't let him handle me
And drive me mad
If you can keep me
I want to stay here with you forever
And I'd be glad
There, there, Bess
You don't need to be afraid no more
You picked up happiness
And laid your worries down
You gonna leave years, and you gonna leave high
You gonna outshine every woman in this town
And remember when crown comes
That's my business
Bess
I loves you, Porgy
(What you think I is, anyway?)
Don't let him take me
(To let another fella steal my woman)
Don't let him handle me
(If you wants to stay with Porgy, you gon' stay)
With his hard hands
(You got a home now, hunny)
(You've got love)
If you can keep me
(So no more crying, can't you understand?)
I wants to stay here
(You gonna go about your business singing)
With you forever
('Cause you've got Porgy)
I've got my man! (You've got your man)
