Lyrics Yes Indeed He Do! - Bessie Smith
I
don't
know
what
makes
it
rain
Can't
tell
what
makes
it
snow
While
I
don't
claim
to
know
it
all
But
there's
some
things
I
do
know
There's
one
thing
in
particular
That
I
never
have
to
guess
I
ask
myself
this
question
And
I
had
to
tell
me,
yeah
Oh,
do
my
sweet,
sweet
daddy
love
me?
Yes,
indeed
he
do
Is
he
true
as
stars
above
me?
What
kind
of
fool
is
you?
He
don't
stay
from
home
all
night
More
than
six
times
a
week
Oh,
I
know
that
I'm
his
Sheba
And
I
know
that
he's
my
Sheik
And
when
I
ask
him
where
he's
been
He
grabs
a
rocking
chair
Then
he
knocks
me
down
And
says,
"It's
just
a
little
love
lick,
dear"
But
if
some
woman
looks
at
him
I'll
tear
her
half
in
two
Oh,
do
my
sweet,
sweet
daddy
love
me?
Yes,
indeed
he
do
Of
course,
my
sweet
daddy
loves
me
Yes,
indeed
he
do
If
he
beats
me
or
mistreats
me
What
is
that
to
you?
I
don't
have
to
do
no
work
Except
to
wash
his
clothes
And
darn
his
socks
and
press
his
pants
And
scrub
the
kitchen
floor
I
wouldn't
take
a
million
For
my
sweet,
sweet
daddy
Jim
And
I
wouldn't
give
a
quarter
For
another
man
like
him
Gee,
ain't
it
great
to
have
a
man
That's
crazy
over
you
Oh,
do
my
sweet,
sweet
daddy
love
me?
Yes,
indeed
he
do
