Got to get my head together
Throw my clothes in a bag
?Cause I can?t go on forever
My conversation is a drag
Ain?t got no reason to be happy
Ain?t got no reason to be sad
But I just got reason to be mad

Catch a cab down to the station
Jump a fast movin? train
For some distant destination
Won?t be back this way again
Ain?t got no reason to be happy
Ain?t got no reason to be sad
But I just got reason to be mad

Ain?t got no reason

Ain?t got no reason

If I ever get to see her
I won?t know what to say
?Cause I still don?t wanna leave her
But my wife won?t let her stay
Ain?t got no reason to be happy
Ain?t got no reason to be sad
But I just got reason to be mad

Ain?t got no reason
