« We were the only ones without a babysitter | Main | They didn't scream, she didn't quit, I didn't throw myself under a bus! »

I love you, Porgy


I never understood what this song was about until I SAW Billie sing it. So gorgeous, elegant, expressive, tragic.

This video is something else, especially the second half where the camera moves in a little.

I love you, Porgy
Don't let him take me
Don't let him handle me
and drive me mad.

If you can keep me,
I want to stay with you forever
and I'll be glad.

I love you, Porgy
Don't let him take me,
Don't let him handle me
with his hot hands.

If you can keep me,
I want to stay here with you forever
I've got my man.

Someday I know he's coming
back to call me.
He's gonna handle me
and hold me so.

It's going to be like dying, Porgy
When he calls me.
But when he comes, I know
I'll have to go.

I love you, Porgy
Don't let him take me
Don't let him handle me
and drive me mad.

If you can keep me,
I want to stay with you forever
I've got my man.
