Bess, You Is My Woman Now / I Loves You, Porgy
Bess, you is my woman now,You is, you is!An' you mus' laugh an' sing an' danceFor 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' timeAn'summer time an' winter time.
I love you Porgy,Don't let him take meDon't let him handle meAn' drive me mad.If you can keep me,I want to stay hereWid 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 meDon't let him handle meAn' drive me mad.If you can keep me,I want to stay hereWid you forever,An' I'll be glad.
