You know I can't get no more (satisfaction)

Girl you just don't give me no more (inspiration)

Listen to me

You gone and lost that (lovin' feeling)

But you won't see me packin' up my clothes and (goin' leavin')

It's better to have and don't need

Than need and don't have

Much better to have and don't need

Than need and don't have

You know that a man without a woman

Is sure gonna feel bad

Girl you cause me so much (pain and sorrow)

But you know we haven't no money momma is it (so much harder)

You better know it yeah

Friends stop by my house (instigating)

But you know there won't be no no (separating)

It's better to have and don't need

Than need and don't have

Much better to have and don't need

Than need and don't have

You know that a woman without a man

Is sure gonna be sad

(Feel so sad, yeah)

You know my clouds don't have a (silver lining)

Don't throw no umbrella on me 'cause the (sun is shinning)

I remember when you loved me you used to (keep me honey)

Well I like the lyrics to your song I just can't (feel the music)

It's better to have and don't need

Than need and don't have

Much better to have and don't need

Than need and don't have

Somebody is better than nobody

To have, have, have

(Oh yeah)

It's better to have and don't need

Than need and don't have

Much better to have and don't need

Than need and don't have

You know that a man without a woman

He's gonna feel so bad

You know that a woman without a man

She's gonna

She's gonna

Feel so sad
