It's Better To Have (And Don't Need) |
You know, I can’t get no more |
(Satisfaction) |
Girl, you know you won’t give me no more |
(Sweet inspiration) |
Listen to me Lord, have mercy! |
You know that I lost that |
(Lovin' Feelin') |
But you don’t see me Packin' up my clothes |
(Goin' and leavin') |
(Woo-woo, woo-woo-woo) |
It’s better to have and don’t need |
Yes, better |
(Than need and don’t have) |
(It's better to have and don’t need) |
Whoa, when you ain’t got nobody |
(Than need and don’t have) |
You know |
(A man without a woman) |
Yes, sho' |
(Sho' gonna feel bad) |
(short guitar & instrumental) |
Girl, you caused me so much |
(Pain and sorrow) |
Well, listen |
Havin' nobody, mama |
(Is so much harder) |
You better know it, yeah |
Friends stopped by my house |
(Instigate you) |
But they don’t know |
It ain’t gon' be no, yeah |
(Separating) |
(Woo-woo, woo-woo-woo) |
(That's an almost) |
It’s better to have and don’t need |
Than need and don’t have |
(Almost gonna what?) |
It’s better to have and don’t need |
(Than need and don’t have) |
(A woman without a man) |
(Sho' gonna be sad) |
Yea-hey-hey |
Ooh! |
(piano & instrumental) |
Boogie! |
My-my-my-my, clouds so dark |
Have lost their silver linin' |
But don’t throw away |
Your umbrella, ya’all |
('Cause your sun is shining) |
Oh, Lord! |
I remember when your love, baby used to |
(Keep me humming) |
But I like the lyrics to your song |
But I just can’t feel |
(Feel the music) |
Oh! |
(It's better to have and don’t need) |
(Than need and don’t have) |
(It's better to have and don’t need |
(Than need and don’t have) |
It’s better (to have and don’t need) |
(Somebody's havin' nobody, to ha-ha-have) |
Take-a a chance! |
(It's better to have and don’t need) |
(And need and don’t have) |
No mo' |
(It's better to have and don’t need) |
Ya’all |
(Than need and don’t have) |
It’s better, oh-oh |
(To have and don’t need) |
(Than need and don’t have) |
(It's better to ha-ha-ha-haave) |
