I Wants to Stay Here Lyrics
I Wants to Stay Here - Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong
Written by:DuBose Heyward/George Gershwin/Ira Gershwin
I wants to stay here
But I ain't worthy
You are 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 have to go
When he calls I have to go
I love 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 comes
You love porgy
Oh I loves you so my porgy
I will always be or my
I wants to stay wid porgy
I'm goin' stay I got a home now
An' you got love
So no mo' cryin' can't you understan'
You goin' to go about yo' business singin' 'cause
I got porgy I got a man
I love you porgy don't let him take me
Don't let him handle me an' drive me mad
If you can keep me I want to stay here
With you forever and I'd be glad
