Lyrics

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 Someday, I know he's coming back to call me He's goin' to handle me and hold me so It's goin' to be like dyin', Porgy, deep inside me - But when he calls, I know I have to go When he calls, I know I have to go 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 There, there, Bess, you don't need to be afraid no more You've picked up happiness and laid your worries down You're goin' to live easy, you're goin' to live high You're goin' to outshine every woman in this town And remember, when crown comes, you'll love Porgy Ooh, I love you so much, Porgy I will always be yours I wanna stay with Porgy I'm going to stay, I got a home now And we got love So, no more crying, can't you understand? Where going about our businesses 'Cause I got Porgy I got my man 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
