Gershwin: Porgy and Bess, Act I: Summertime

summertime and the living is easy

fish are jumping

and the cotton is high

oh your daddy is rich

and your mamma is good looking

so hush little baby

dont you cry

one of this mornings

you are gonna rise up singing

then you spread your wings

and you ll take it to the sky

but till that morning

theres a nothing can harm you

with daddy and mammi standing by
