| 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 |
