Bess, You Is My Women Songtext
von Lena Horne

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...
