I want to stay here But I ain't worthy You are to descent to understand For when I see him He hypnotizes me When he takes hold of me With his hard hand
Someday, I know he's comin' back To call me He's gonna handle me and hold me so It's gonna be like dyin', Porgy Deep inside me, But when he calls I have to go
I love you Porgy Don't let him take me Don't let him handle me And drive me mad If I can stay here, and you would keep me
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 wants to stay here
With you forever and I'd be glad I love you Porgy
