I Wants to Stay Here

I wants to stay here,

But I ain`t worthy.

You is too decent to understan`.

For when I see him he hypnotize me.

When he take hold of me with his hot hand.

Someday I know he`s coming back to call me.

He`s goin` to handle me an` hold me so.

It`s goin` to be like dyin`, Porgy, deep inside me -

But when he calls, I know I have to go.If dere warn`t no Crown, Bess, if dere was only jus` you an`

Porgy, what den?I loves you, Porgy,

Don` let him take me,

Don` let him handle me an` drive me mad.

If you kin keep me,

I wants to stay here wid you forever,

An` I`d be glad.There, there, Bess, you don` need to be afraid no mo`,

You`s picked up happiness and laid yo` worries down.

You goin` to live easy, you goin` to live high.

You goin` to outshine every woman in dis town.

An` remember, when Crown come that`s my business, Bess!I loves you, Porgy,

Don` let him take me

Don` let him handle me

With his hot han`

If you kin keep me

I wants to stay here wid you forever.

I got my man.What you think I is, anyway,

To let dat dirty houn` dog steal my woman?

If you wants to stay wid Porgy, you goin` stay.

You got a home now, Honey, an` you got love.

So no mo` cryin`, can`t you understan`?

You goin` to go about yo` business, singin` `cause

You got Porgy, you got a man.
