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'!

Porgy, I's yo' woman now!
I's yours forever -
Mornin' time an' evenin' time an'
summer time an' winter time

Porgy:
Mornin' time an' evenin' time an'
summer time an' winter time
Bess, you got yo' man

Bess, you is my woman now and forever*
Dis life is jes' begun,
Bess, we two is one
Now an' forever
Oh, bess, don't min' dose women
You got yo' Porgy
I knows you means it,
I seen it in yo' eyes, Bess
We'll go swingin'
Through de years a-singin'

Bess:
Mornin' time an' evenin' time an'
summer time an' winter time

Porgy:
Mornin' time an' evenin' time an'
summer time an' winter time

Bess:
Oh, my Porgy, my man, Porgy

Porgy: [simultaneously] My bess, my Bess

Bess: From dis minute I'm tellin' you, I keep dis vow: Porgy, I's yo'
woman now

Porgy: [simultaneously]
From dis minute I'm tellin' you, I keep dis vow:
Oh, my Bessie, we's happy now We is one now

*Sung as Bess repeats her part from 'Porgy, I's yo' woman now'
through 'I's yours forever -'
