Summertime
And the livin' is easy.
Fish are jumpin'
And the cotton is high.
Oh, your daddy's rich
And your Ma is good lookin',
So hush little baby,
Don't you cry.
One of these mornin's
You're gonna rise up singin'
And you'll spread your wings
And you'll take to the sky;
But 'til that mornin'
There ain't nothin' can harm you,
So hush little baby,
Don't you cry.

Paul Robeson made some recordings of songs from Porgy and Bess, but was never in a production of it.
Yes. I know of at least two, Janis Joplin did a version and Sublime did a (somewhat loose) interpretation... I'm sure there are others.
