What You Want Wid Bess? Lyrics
What You Want Wid Bess - Ella Fitzgerald
What do you want Bess
She's gettin' ole now
Take a fine young gal
For to satisfy Crown
Look at this chest
An' look at these arms you got
You know how it always been with me
These five years I been yo' woman
You could kick me in the street
Then when you wanted me back
You could whistle an' there I was
Back again lickin' yo' hand
There's plenty better lookin' gal than Bess
Can't you see I'm with Porgy
Now and forever
I am his woman he would die without me
Oh Crown won't you let me go to my man to my man
He is a cripple an' needs my love all my love
What do you want Bess
Oh let me go to my man
What do you want Bess
