Bess, You Is My Woman Now Lyrics - Ella Fitzgerald

Porgy: 

Bess, you is my woman now, 

You is, you is! 

An' you mus' laugh an' sing an' dance 

For two instead of one. 

Want no wrinkle on yo' brow, 

Nohow, 

Because de sorrow of de past is all done done 

Oh, bess, my bess! 

 

Bess: 

Porgy, i's yo' woman now, 

I is, i is! 

An' i ain't never goin' nowhere 'less you shares de fun. 

Dere's no wrinkle on my brow, 

Nohow, 

But i ain't goin'! you hear me sayin', 

If you ain' goin', wid you i'm stayin'!
