Lyrics
This is a man's world
This is a man's world
But it would be nothing
Nothing without a woman to care
You see, man made the cars
To take us over the world
Man made the train
To carry the heavy load
Man made the electro lights
To take us out of the dark
Man made the bullet for the war
Like Noah made the ark
This is a man's man's, man's world
But it would be nothing
Nothing without a woman to care
Man thinks of our little baby girls, and the baby boys
Man make them happy, 'cause man makes them toys
And after man make everything, everything he can
You know that man makes money to buy from other man
This is a man's world
But it would be nothing, nothing
Not one little thing
Without a woman to care
He's lost in the wilderness
He's lost in the bitterness
He's lost, lost and...
Writer(s): James Brown, Betty Jean Newsome
