I Got Plenty Of Nuttin' (from "Porgy And Bess")

Porgy And Bess: I Got Plenty Of Nuttin' - Todd Duncan

Oh I got plenty of nutting

And nuttings plenty for me

I got no car got no mule

I got no misery

De folks wid plenty of plenty

Got a lock on de door

Fraid somebody's a-going to rob them

While dey's out a-making more

What for

Nah I got no lock on my door

Dat's no way to be

Dey kin steal de rug from de floor

Dat's okeh wid me

Cause de things dat I prize

Like de stars in de skies

All are free

Oh I got plenty of nutting

And nuttings plenty for me

I got my gal got my song

Got Hebben the whole day long

Dat no use complaining

Got my gal got my Lawd

Got my song

Oh I got plenty of nutting

And nuttings plenty for me

I got the sun got the moon

Got the deep blue sea

De folks wid plenty of plenty

Got to pray all de day

Seems wid plenty you sure got to worry

How to keep the debbel away

Away

I aingt fretting about hell

Till de time arrive

Never worry long as I'm well

Never one to strive

To be good to be bad

What the hell

I is glad I's alive

Oh I got plenty of nutting

And nuttings plenty for me

I got my gal got my song

Got Hebben the whole day long

Dat no use complaining

Got my gal got my Lawd

Got my song
