I Ain't Got You
Yearning in Cadillac Dreams: 'I Ain't Got You' by Steve Miller Band
Lyrics
I got women on the right of me
I have women to my right
I got women on the left of me
I have women to my left
I got women all around me
I am surrounded by women
But I ain't got you
Despite having women around, I lack you
I got an Eldorado Cadillac
I own an Eldorado Cadillac
With a spare tire on the back
My Eldorado Cadillac has a spare tire on the back
I got a charge account at the bank
I have a charge account at the bank
But I ain't got you
Despite my possessions, I still lack you
I got a tavern, a package store
I own a tavern and a package store
It's the number four forty-four
It's at the number four forty-four
I got a mojo, don't you know?
I possess a mojo, a magical charm
I'm all dressed up with no place to go
I'm well-dressed but have no destination
I got an Eldorado Cadillac
I own an Eldorado Cadillac
With a spare tire on the back
My Eldorado Cadillac has a spare tire on the back
I got a charge account at the bank
I have a charge account at the bank
But I ain't got you
Despite my possessions, I still lack you
I got a tavern, a package store
I own a tavern and a package store
It's the number four forty-four
It's at the number four forty-four
I got a mojo, don't you know?
I possess a mojo, a magical charm
I'm all dressed up with no place to go
I'm well-dressed but have no destination
Got women on the right of me
I have women to my right
I got women on the left of me
I have women to my left
I got women all around me
I am surrounded by women
But I ain't got you
Despite having women around, I lack you
Said, I ain't got you babe, I ain't got you
I emphasize that I don't have you, babe
Ain't got you oh, what I gonna do?
Expressing the consequence of not having you
Girl, I ain't got you
Reiteration that I don't have you, girl
