Daddy plays the ashtray, baby starts to cry
The Lady wants to know the reason why
Daddy's just like Coltrane, baby's just like Miles
The Lady's just like heaven when she smiles
The Lady wants to know
She wants to know the reason
She's got to know the reason
Why this man has got to go
This man is always leaving
How he hates to say goodbye
But what she doesn't know
Is there really is no reason?
Really is no reason why
Daddy hates airplanes, hmm, baby loves to fly
And the Lady wants to know the reason why
Daddy's just like Coltrane, baby's just like Miles
The Lady's just like heaven when she smiles
The Lady wants to know
She wants to know the reason
She's got to know the reason why
This man has got to go
Oh, this man is always leaving
How he hates to say goodbye
But what she doesn't know
Is there really is no reason?
Really is no reason why
The Lady wants to know
She wants to know the reason
She's got to know the reason why
This man has got to go
Oh, this man is always leaving
How he hates to say goodbye
But what she doesn't know
Is there really, is no reason?
Really, is no reason why
