I love you, Porgy
Don't let him touch me
Don't let him handle me
With his hot hands

If you can keep me
I want to stay with you forever
I love my man

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 with you forever
And I'll be glad

I love you, Porgy
Don't let him take me
Don't let him handle me
With his hot hands

If you can keep me
I want to stay with you forever
I love my man
Someday I know
He's going to come for me
He's gonna handle me
And hold me so

It's going to be like dying, Porgy
When he calls me
When he comes, I know
I'll have to go

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 with you forever
And I'll be glad
