Sidney Bechet's (beh-SHAY's) soprano saxophone version of this song became his signature and launched Blue Note Records. Musicologists debate this song's connection to the folk song "Sometimes I Feel Like a Motherless Child." Billie Holiday, recording with Artie Shaw, added a blues in lection to this song's lyric "One of these mornings you're going to rise up singing, then you'll spread your wings and you'll take to the sky." In its original appearance, this song is a lullaby sung by the 送sherman's wife Clara to her child on Cat送sh Row. For 10 points, name this DuBose Heyward and George Gershwin collaboration, the opening song from Porgy and Bess, which concerns a season when "the livin' is easy, 送sh are jumpin', and the cotton is high."
