Introduction and Summertime
A woman is a sometime thing
Where is Brudder Robbins? ; Gone, gone, gone ; Overflow
My man's gone now
Leavin' for the promise' lan'
I got plenty o' nuttin'
Bess, you is my woman
Oh, I can't sit down ; I got plenty o' nuttin' (reprise)
It ain't necessarily so
It's like dis, Crown ; What you want wid Bess?
I loves you, Porgy
There's a boat dat's leavin' soon for New York
Oh Bess ; Oh, where's my Bess ; Oh Lawd, I'm on my way.
