[Am6] [F7] [E7]
Someday I know he's coming to call me
[Am6] [G7sus] [G7]
He's going to handle me and hold me.
[Cm] [Cm/Bb] [Ab7]
So, it' going to be like dying, Porgy, when he calls me.

But when he comes I know I'll have to go
I loves you, Porgy, don't let him take me
Honey, don't let him handle me, and drive me mad
If you can keep me, I wanna stay here with you forever
I've got my man.
