Nina Simone
Blues for Porgy
[Intro]
This song talks about the same Porgy
That we've talked about for two years now
His name is Porgy
Only this one was written by Dorothy Fields and Jimmy McHugh
[Verse 1]
I got my man now, I got Porgy
My baby understands now, I got my Porgy
I'm through with byways, his way is may way, forevermore
Lord, when I feel his arms around me
Knowing he can't go on without me
I wants to beg for a chance to camp at his door
[Bridge]
Say he's not much for to look and see
He's lazy and no count as he can be
He's got the kind of love for me
[Verse 2]
So I'm changing my style, my way of living
Glad I've stopped taking and started giving
I got my man, got my Porgy now
[Bridge]
Though you say he's not much for to look and see
No-no-no-no-no-no
He's lazy and no count as he can be
He's got the kind of love for me
[Outro]
Oh, oh baby, I'm changing my style and way of living
Glad I've stopped taking and started giving
I got my man, I got my Porgy now
Yeah, yeah
