What would be the best thing to do to keep a cloth couch clean outdoors?

I've recently acquired a new sofa, and put my old sectional pieces couch out on the front porch to dispose of. However, I find that I like having a couch on the porch and am considering keeping it. What would the best thing for me to do to keep it dry, clean, not infested with bugs, and generally where you wouldn't mind sitting on it?
 
A cover comes to mind. problem is that it will draw moisture into the fabric and the wood eventually. This will cause mold. Indoor furniture is not made for outside use on a permanent basis.
