George Gershwin
I Loves You, Porgy
[Verse 1]
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'll be glad
[Verse 2]
I want to stay here
But I'm unworthy
You are too decent
To understand
That when I see him
He'll hypnotize me
When he takes hold of me
With his hot hand
[Bridge]
Someday I know he's coming back
To call me
And he's gonna handle me
And hold me so
It's gonna be like dying, Porgy
Deep inside me
But when he calls
I'll have to go
[Verse 1]
But I love you, Porgy
Don't let him take me
Don't let him handle me
And drive me mad
For if you can keep me
I want to stay here
With you forever
And I'll be glad
[Piano Solo]
[Bridge]
Someday I know he's coming back
To call me
And he's gonna handle me
And hold me so
It's gonna be like dying, Porgy
Deep inside me
But when he calls
I know I'll go
[Verse 3]
I love you, Porgy
Don't let him take me
Don't let him handle me
With his hot hand
If you can keep me
I want to stay here
With you forever
I've got my man
