Bess, You Is My Woman Now
Dorothy Heyward, Du Bose Heyward, George Gershwin, 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 nohow!
Because the sorrow of the past
Is all done done oh, Bess, My Bess!
The real happiness has just begun
Bess, you is my woman now you is, you is!
An' I ain' never goin' nowhere
'less you share the fun
There's no wrinkle on my brow nohow!
But I ain' goin', with you I'm stayin'!
Bess, you is my woman now
I'm yours forever more
There's no wrinkle on my brow nohow!
But I ain' goin'! You hear me sayin'
If you ain' goin', with you I'm stayin'!
Bess, you is my woman now i'm yours forever
Mornin' time an' evenin' time an'
Summer time an' winter time
Mornin' time an' evenin' time an'
Summer time to winter time bess
