I loves you Porgy don't let him take me
 Don't let him handle me
 And drive me mad
 If you can keep me I wants to stay here
 With you forever and I'll be glad

 I loves you Porgy, don't let him take me
 Don't let him handle me with his hot hand
 If you can keep me I wants to stay here
 With you forever I got my man
 
 Someday, I know he's coming back to call me
 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 have to go

 Porgy, I is your brother now I is
 I isn't dying, never going nowhere
 Less he shares the farm
 
 Want no wrinkle on my brow
 Know how?
 Because the sorrow of the past is all done done

 My Porgy, now the real happiness has just begun
 Want no wrinkle on your brow
 Know how?
 And I ain't going, your hear me saying

 If you ain't going with you I'm staying

 Porgy, I is your brother now
 I is yours forever
 Morning time and evening time
 And summer time and winter time

 Oh, my Porgy, my man Porgy
 From this minute I'm telling you
 I keep this vow
 Porgy, I is your brother now
