Summertime - from Porgy And Bess (Live)
This is our version of a very
Standard, standard
I can feel
I can feel
This is the way I wish it could always be
Hmmmm
Uh, no ahan
It's summertime, summertime, and the living is easy
Yes they are jumping, I know they are jumping
And the cotton is high
Your daddy is, he is so rich
And your mom she is kinda pretty
So, hush now little baby, I not gon' hold you cry
Oh-oh-oh no
No, no, no
Ooh, ooh, ooh
One of these mornings, morning, morning, mornings
You're gonna rise up singing, singing
Spread your wings, your wings, your wings
And take to the sky
But until, 'til, 'til, 'til that moment
There's nothing gonna harm you, no, no
Your daddy and your mammy are standing by
When you way down, down, when you're down to the ground
One of these mornings you're gonna rise up singing
Spread your wings, wings, wings
Take to the sky
But until that moment, that moment, moment
There's nothing can harm you, no, no
Your daddy and mammy are standing
Don't you cry
Standard, standard
I can feel
I can feel
This is the way I wish it could always be
Hmmmm
Uh, no ahan
It's summertime, summertime, and the living is easy
Yes they are jumping, I know they are jumping
And the cotton is high
Your daddy is, he is so rich
And your mom she is kinda pretty
So, hush now little baby, I not gon' hold you cry
Oh-oh-oh no
No, no, no
Ooh, ooh, ooh
One of these mornings, morning, morning, mornings
You're gonna rise up singing, singing
Spread your wings, your wings, your wings
And take to the sky
But until, 'til, 'til, 'til that moment
There's nothing gonna harm you, no, no
Your daddy and your mammy are standing by
When you way down, down, when you're down to the ground
One of these mornings you're gonna rise up singing
Spread your wings, wings, wings
Take to the sky
But until that moment, that moment, moment
There's nothing can harm you, no, no
Your daddy and mammy are standing
Don't you cry
