Disc 1. Introduction ; Jasbo Brown blues
Summertime ; Oh, nobody knows when the Lawd is goin' to call ; I been sweatin' all day
Here come de honey man ; Here's the ol' crap shark!
A woman is a sometime thing (lissen to yo' daddy warn you Jake)
They pass by singin'' ; Here comes Big Boy! ; Don't you ever let a woman grieve you
Oh, little stars ; Touch that money an' meet yo' Gawd!
Wake up an' hit it out ; That you, sportin' life?
Gone, gone, gone (where is Brudder Robins?
Overflow, overflow ; Gawd got plenty of money for de saucer
Um! A saucer-burial setup, I see
My man's gone now ; How de saucer stan' now, my sister?
Headin' for the promis' lan' (oh, the train is at the station).
Disc 2. It takes a long pull to get there (Oh, I'm agoin' out to the Blackfish banks)
Oh, I got plenty o' nuttin' ; Lissen there, what I tells you
I hates yo' struttin' style ; Mornin', lawyer, lookin' for somebody? ; Dey's a buckra comin'
Buzzard song (look ou, dat's a buzzard! ; Lo, Bess, goin' to picnic"
Bess, you is my woman now
Oh, I can't sit down
I ain't got no shame
It ain't necessarily so ; Shame on all you sinners ; Bess!
Crown!
Oh, what you want wid Bess?
Honey, dat's all de breakfast I got time for ; Take yo' han's off me, I say
Oh, doctor Jesus
Oh dey's so fresh an' fine ; I'm talkin' about devil crabs
Porgy, Porgy, dat you there
I loves you, Porgy
Why you been out on that wharf.
Disc 3. Oh, Doctor Jesus
Oh, de Lawd shake de heavens ; One of dese mornings you goin' to rise up singin'
Oh, dere's somebody knockin' at de do' ; You is a nice parcel of Christians ; If Gawd want to kill me ; Oh, de Lawd shake de heavens
A red-headed woman ; Jake's boat in de river ; Oh, Doctor Jesus
Clara, Clara, don't you be downhearted ; Crown, Crown, don't you be downhearted ; Summertime
Interlude (death of Crown)
