"Should I Stay Or Should I Go" is een nummer van de Britse groep The Clash, afkomstig van het album Combat Rock uit 1982. Het nummer werd in 1981 geschreven en ingezongen door Mick Jones, die in 1983 The Clash zou verlaten. Op 17 september 1982 werd het nummer oorspronkelijk op single uitgebracht en op 18 februari 1991 opnieuw uitgebracht. De single zou gaan over de stormachtige relatie tussen Jones en Ellen Foley, doch Jones heeft dit in het verleden ontkend.

"Should I Stay or Should I Go" is a song by the English punk rock band the Clash from their fifth studio album Combat Rock, written in 1981 and featuring Mick Jones on lead vocals. It was released in 1982 as a double A-sided single alongside "Straight to Hell", performing modestly on global music charts. In the United States, "Should I Stay or Should I Go" charted on the Billboard Hot 100 without reaching the top 40. The song received greater attention nearly a decade later as the result of an early-1990s Levi's jeans commercial, leading to the song's 1991 re-release, which topped the UK Singles Chart and reached the top 10 in New Zealand and many European charts. The song was listed in Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time in 2004.
