but some day she’s gonna throw him down

[crown]

[serena]

[bess]

there’s nothin’ like ’em, thank god

[bess, spoken]
ha ha ha ha ha ha

[crown]

[crown, spoken]
nobody ain’t drinkin’ none of my liquor

[crown]

[mingo]

[robbins]

i goin’ to pass ’em along

[robbins, spoken]
and see if i can break my luck

[mingo]
robbins’ lady ain’t allow him but fifty cents
and he can’t take no chances with bad luck

[bess]

[bess, spoken]

[bess]
your woman is easy when you know the way

[bess, spoken]

[porgy]
don’t you ever let a woman grieve you

[porgy & bess]
’cause she got your wedding ring

[porgy]

[porgy & ensemble]
love you and deceive you
take your clothes and leave you
’cause—

[porgy]
a woman is a sometime thing

[porgy & ensemble]

[serena]
that gal ain’t need to worry ’bout no man marrying her

[bess]

[crown, spoken]

[crown]
you don’t give mingo a chance to talk to the bones

[mingo]

[mingo]

come home little bones, come home to pappy

[crown]

come clean you little blackeyed bitches

[mingo]

and show these tinhorns how to hit

[sportin’ life]

[robbins]
crown too cockeyed drunk to read ’em

[robbins, spoken]
what the dice say, bess?

[bess]

[crown]
i ain’t drunk enough to read ’em
that is the trouble
ha ha ha ha ha, ah ha ha ha ha ha!
liquor ain’t strong enough

[crown, spoken]
give me a pinch of happy dust

[crown]
sportin’ life

[bess]
don’t give him that stuff, sportin’ life
he’s ugly drunk already

[crown]
pay him and shut up!

[peter]
friend and dice and happy dust ain’t meant to ‘sociate
you mens best go slow

[jake & mingo]
leave peter be, let him alone (he ain’t mean no harm)

[sportin’ life]

‘leven come home, fido!
+whistling+

[crown]

[crown, spoken]

crown cockeyed drunk, he can’t tell dice from wa—

[crown, spoken]
