Bess, you is my woman now

di: (DuBose Heyward – Ira Gershwin)

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, no how.

But I ain’ goin’!
You hear me sayin’
If you ain’ goin’,
wid you l’m stayin’.

Bess, you is my woman now,
I’s yours forever
Mornin’ time an’ evenin’ time
an’ summer time an’ winter time
