Just the lyrics here, but look for her version on line via Ed Sullivan Show

I loves you, Porgy
Don't let him take me
Don't let him handle me and drive me mad
If you can keep me, I wanna stay here
With you forever and I'll be glad
Yes I loves you, Porgy
Don't let him take me
Don't let him handle me with his hot hands
If you can keep me I wants to stay here
With you forever, I've got my man
I loves you, Porgy
Don't let him take me
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
Someday I know he's coming to call me
He's going to 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 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

I'll just drop this here. Goodness. She was really one of a kind.

We watched the #EdSullivan documentary on Netflix.

It was eye opening. I had no idea of what he was doing and accomplished. It seems I was a bit naive. Highly recommended.
