About Sure 'Nuff 'n' Yes, I Do

Sure 'Nuff 'n Yes I Do is the first track on Safe as Milk, the 1967 debut album by Captain Beefheart & his Magic Band. Not a suprise on an album heavily influenced by delta blues, the opening bars of Sure 'Nuff 'n Yes I Do are based on the delta blues standard Rollin’ and Tumblin’ (also known as If I Had Possession Over Judgement Day). The opening lyric, «Well I was born in the desert(...)», quotes New Minglewood Blues, an early version of Rollin’ and Tumblin’ by Cannon's Jug Stompers. .

Sure 'Nuff 'n' Yes, I Do Lyrics

[00:04.16] Well, I was born in the desert
[00:07.58] Came on up from New Orleans
[00:13.49] Came up on a tornado sunlight in the sky
[00:22.37] I went around all day with the
[00:25.40] Moon sticking in my eye
[00:30.63] Hey-hey-hey, all you young girls
[00:33.81] Wherever you're at
[00:39.31] I got a brand-new Cadillac, got a Ferrari too
[00:48.18] Sure 'nuff, baby, sure 'nuff, 'n' yes, I do
[00:56.00] Got the time to teach ya now
[00:59.25] Bet you'll learn some too
[01:04.25] Got the time to teach ya now
[01:07.26] Bet you'll learn some too
[01:13.05] Sure 'nuff, baby, sure 'nuff, 'n' yes, I do
[01:20.68] Hey-hey-hey, all you young girls
[01:23.82] Whatever you do
[01:29.02] Hey-hey-hey, all you young girls
[01:31.93] Whatever you do
[01:37.48] Well, come on by and see me
[01:40.43] I'll make it worth it to you
[01:49.51] And you
[01:50.52] Play with me and I'll play with me and you
[01:54.43] Sleep with me and I'll sleep with me and you
[01:58.48] Stick with me and I'll stick with you, woo
[02:02.67] Stick with me and I'll stick with you
[02:08.06]
