It's Better to Have (And Don't Need) Lyrics

You know I can't
Get no more (satisfaction)
Girl, you know you don't
Give me no more (inspiration)

Listen to me
Lord, have mercy

You know I lost that
(Happy feeling)
But you don't see me
Packing up my clothes
(Going and leaving)

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

A man without a woman
You sure gonna feel bad

Girl, you caused me so much
(Pain and sorrow)
Listen, having nobody, mama
(Is so much harder)
You better know it, yeah

Friends drop by my house
(Instigating)
But they don't know
There ain't gonna be no
(Separating)

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

A man without a woman
Is sure gonna be sad

My, my, my, my clouds
Don't have no (silver lining)
But don't throw away
Your umbrella, y'all
Cause your (sun is shining)

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)

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

Somebody is better than nobody
To ha-ha-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
Than need and don't have...
