It's a man's world lyrics
by James Brown



This is a man's world
This is a man's world
But it wouldn't be nothing
Nothing without a woman or a girl

Say it one more time

This is a man's world
This is a man's world
But it wouldn't be nothing
Without a woman or a girl

You see, man made the cars
To take us over the roads
Man made the train
To carry the heavy loads

Man made the electric light
To take as out of the dark
Man made the boat for the water
Like Noah made the ark

This is a man's world
But it wouldn't be nothing
Nothing without a woman or a girl

Man thinks about the little betty baby girls
And the baby boys
Man makes them happy
'Cause man made them toys

And after man make everyhing he can
You know that man makes money
To buy from other men

This is a man's world
But it wouldn't be nothing
Nothing without a woman or a girl

Oho!

A man needs a woman
Man got to have a woman
He needs a woman or a girl
He needs a woman

Man make everything he can
But a woman makes a better man
Man needs a woman

Man think about anything above
But money can't buy him love
Face the fact, we gotta face the fact
Man needs a woman

He needs a woman or a girl, oh!
Ohoho!
Mmm-mmm
Man needs a woman

He needs a woman
