Lyrics

Bess, you is my woman now You is, you is An' you mus' laugh an' sing an' dance For two instead of one Want no wrinkle on yo' brow Nohow Because de sorrow of de past is all done done Oh, Bess, my Bess De real happiness is jes' begun Porgy, I's yo' woman now I is, I is An' I ain't never goin' nowhere 'less you shares de fun Dere's no wrinkle on my brow Nohow But I ain't goin', you hear me sayin' If you ain' goin', wid you I'm stayin' Porgy, I's yo' woman now I's yours forever Mornin' time an' evenin' time An' summer time an' winter time Mornin' time an' evenin' time An' summer time an' winter time Bess, you got yo' man Porgy, I's your woman now (Bess, you is my woman now and forever) I is, I is, and I ain't never goin' nowhere (Dis life is jes' begun) 'Less you shares de fun (Bess, we two is one now an' forever) Dere's no wrinkle on my brow (Oh, Bess, don't min' dose women, you got yo' Porgy) Nohow (You loves yo' Porgy) But I ain't goin', you hear me sayin' (I knows you means it) If you ain' goin', wid you I'm stayin' (I seen it in yo' eyes, Bess) Porgy, I's yo' woman, now (We'll go swingin') I's yours forever (Through de years a-singin') Mornin' time an' evenin' time An' summer time an' winter time Mornin' time an' evenin' time An' summer time an' winter time Oh, my Porgy, my man, Porgy (My Bess, my Bess) From dis minute I'm tellin' you I keep dis vow Porgy, I's yo' woman now (Oh, my Bessie, we's happy now, we's one now)
