Lyrics

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 so glad

Someday, I know he's comin' back to call on me
He's gonna handle me and hold me
So, it's gonna be like dyin', Porgy
Daddy, deep inside me
But when he comes I know I have to go

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 wanna stay here
With you forever
'Cause I got my man

Writer(s): Ira Gershwin, Du Bose Heyward, George Gershwin
