I Got Plenty O’ Nuttin’

Lyrics

[PORGY] Oh, I got plenty of nothin' And nothin's plenty for me I got no car, got no mule Got no misery The folks with plenty of plenty Got a lock on their door 'Fraid somebody's a-goin' to rob 'em While they's out a-makin' more What for? Now I got no lock on my door That's no way to be They can steal the rug from the floor That's okay with me 'Cause the things that I prize Like the stars in the skies All are free Oh, I got plenty of nothin' And nothin's plenty for me I got my gal, got my song Got heaven the whole day long [PORGY, spoken] No use complainin', heh [PORGY] Got my gal, got my Lord, got my song [WOMEN] Porgy change since that woman come to live with he [SERENA] How hе change! [ENSEMBLE] He ain't cross with children no morе And ain't you hear how He and Bess all the time singin' in their room? [MARIA] I tell you that Porgy's happy now [ENSEMBLE] Happy [PORGY] I got plenty of nothin' And nothin's plenty for me I got the sun, got the moon Got the deep blue sea The folks with plenty of plenty Got to pray all the day Seems with plenty you sure got to worry How to keep the devil away, away Now I ain't a-frettin' 'bout hell 'Til the time arrive Never worry long as I'm well Never one to strive To be good, to be bad What the hell, I's glad l's alive Oh, I got plenty of nothin' And nothin's plenty for me I got my gal, got my song Got heaven the whole day long [PORGY, spoken] No use complainin', ha [PORGY] Got my gal [ENSEMBLE] Got his gal [PORGY] Got my Lord [ENSEMBLE] Got his Lord [PORGY] Got my song!
