歌詞
What make you so still, Bess? (Oh, the sun goin' to rise in the)
You ain't sayin' nothin' (West)
You ain't afraid, is you, honey? (And the moon goin' to set in the)
I just thinkin' (Sea)
And you know (And the stars goin' to)
What I thinkin' about? (Bow before my Lord)
Bow down before my Lord
You's thinkin' what this storm must be like (Who died on)
A-tramplin' over the sea islands (Calvary)
These waves must be runnin' clean across Kittiwah (Calvary)
Ain't nobody could live on that damn island in a storm like this (Calvary)
I guess you got me for keeps, Porgy
Ain't I tell you that all along?
There's somebody knocking at the door
There's somebody knocking at the door
Oh, Mary
Oh, Marta
There's somebody knocking at the door
I hear Death knocking at the door (Oh, there's somebody)
What you say, Daddy Peter? (Knocking at the door)
Oh, there's
I hear Death knocking at the door (Somebody knocking at the door)
It must be death or Peter can't hear him (He ain't hear nothin') (Oh)
He can't hear no livin' (Ain't nobody knock) (Mary)
Death is knocking at the door! (Person) (Oh, Marta)
Open the door, Mingo (There's somebody)
And show Peter there ain't nobody there (Knocking at the door)
Open 'em up yourself!
All right, I'll show you (Oh, there's somebody knocking at the door)
Oh, there's somebody knocking at the door
Oh, Mary
That ain't no use, if he's Death, it's comin' in (Oh, Marta)
Oh, God, God (Anyway) (There's somebody)
Don't let him in (Knocking at the door)
