Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 hot hand [Bridge] Someday I know he's comin' back to call me He's going to handle me and hold me so It's goin' to be like dyin', Porgy, deep inside me But when he calls, I have to go When he calls, I have to go [Verse 2] I love 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 [Interlude] There, there, Bess, you don't need to be afraid no more You've picked up happiness and laid your worries down You're going to live easy, you're going to live high You're going to outshine every woman in this town And remember, when Crown comes, you love Porgy [Verse 3] Oh, I love you so, my Porgy I will always be your woman I wanna stay with Porgy I'm going to stay, I got a home now and we got love So no more cryin', can't you understand? We're goin' about our business singin' 'Cause I got Porgy I got my man [Verse 2] I love 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
