Bess, You Is My Woman Now/I Loves You, Porgy lyrics

Bess, you is my woman now,

You is, you is!

An' you mus' laugh an' sing an' dance

For two instead of one.

Want no wrinkle on yo' brow,

No-how,

But I ain't goin'! You hear me sayin',

If you ain' goin', wid you I'm stayin'!

Bess, you is my woman now!

Now an' forever.

Mornin' time an' evenin' time

An'summer time an' winter time.

I love you Porgy,

Don't let him take me

Don't let him handle me

An' drive me mad.

If you can keep me,

I want to stay here

Wid you forever,

An' I'll be glad.

Someday, I know he's comin' back to call me,

He's goin' to handle me an' hol' me so.

It's goin' to be like dyin', Porgy,deep inside me.

Bu when he calls, I have to go.

I love you Porgy,

Don't let him take me

Don't let him handle me

An' drive me mad.

If you can keep me,

I want to stay here

Wid you forever,

An' I'll be glad.
