Better To Have And Not Need

Better To Have And Not Need

Oh somebody, the sermon today is about a song I love so much
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 ah, but ah, you won't see me packin' up my coat (goin' leavin')

You better believe me when I tell you (ooh, ooh)
Uh huh (ah, ooh, ooh)
It's better to have and don't need
Than to need and don't have
Much better to have and don't need
Than to need and don't have
You know that a man without a woman (is sure)
Is gonna feel bad

Brotherman, brotherman, listen
Girl you cause me so much (pain and sorrow)
Ah but you haven't no more money momma it is (so much harder)
You better know it, yeah
Friends stop by my house (instigating)
But you know there won't be no no no no no no no (separating)

(Ooh, ooh)
Oh, la
(Ooh, ooh)

It's better to have and don't need
Than to need and don't have
Much better to have and don't need
Than to need and don't have
A man without a woman
(Is sure gonna be sad) Is surely, oh whoah, yeah

Come on Sam!
I ain't got but one thing to say
If you don't mind, I'd like to say it
You know my clouds don't have no (silver lining)
Don't throw no umbrella on me, baby, 'cause the (sun is shinning)
Hahaha
Say it, Sam!
I remember when she used to (keep me honey)
I like the lyrics to your song, I just can't (feel the music)
I wonder do you know what I'm taking about (Ooh, ooh)
Huh? (Ah, ooh, ooh)

It's better
to have and don't need
Than to need and don't have
Much better to have and don't need
Than to need and don't have
(Somebody is better than nobody
To have, have, have)
Alright

It's better to have and don't need
Than to need and don't have
Much better to have and don't need
Than to need and don't have
Whoah!
Much better to have and don't need
And I need
Than to need and don't have
I need
Much better to have and don't need
Than don't have
Than to need and don't have
Much better to have and don't need
Sing it right there, my buddy
Than to need and don't have
Much better to have and don't need
Than to need and don't have
Much better to have and don't need
Than to need and don't have
Much better to have and don't need
Than to need and don't have

Much better, yow

Ah, to have and don't need

It's better to have, and have, than need and don't have
Whoah, whoo hoo
