Better To Have And Not Need Lyrics


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 havev
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 because the
(Sun is shining)
I remember when you loved me, you used to
(Keep me honey)
Well, I like the lyrics to your song but 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, listen to me)
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

Huey Lewis & the News is a Academy Award-nominated American rock band based in San Francisco, California. Their greatest success was in the 1980s, when they were one of the most popular music acts of the decade and released several gold and platinum albums. The band is known for writing simple, light-hearted songs from a working-class perspective and typically appealed to yuppies and baby boomers.

Combining a rock (and sometimes, a blues rock) backing with harmony vocals and Lewis's voice, Huey Lewis & the News had numerous hit songs during the 1980s and early 1990s, including "The Power of Love" and "Back in Time" (both of which were featured in the film "Back to the Future"), "I Want a New Drug", "Doin' It All (For My Baby)", "Do You Believe in Love?" "Hip to Be Square", "Stuck With You", and "Jacob's Ladder". Huey Lewis shared three Grammy awards, an American Music Award, and a People's Choice Award along with several artists for his role singing the 1985 charity song "We Are the World".

The track 'Hip to Be Square" features prominently in the 2000 movie "American Psycho", starring Christian Bale as serial killer Patrick Bateman. In both the film and the book it was based on, Bateman is a hardcore fan of the band.
