James Brown
It’s a Man’s World (1964 Version)
[Chorus]
This is a man's world
This is a man's world
But it wouldn't be nothing
Without a woman or a girl

Say it one more time

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

[Verse 1]
You see, man made the cars
To take us over the road
Man made the train
To carry the heavy loads
Man made the electric light
Take us out of the dark
Man made a boat for the water
Like Noah made the ark

[Chorus]
This is a man's world
But it wouldn't be nothing, nothing
Without a woman or a girl
[Verse 2]
Man thinks about our little bitty baby girls
And our baby boys
Man make them happy
'Cause man make them toys
And after man make
Everything he can
Man makes money
To buy from other man

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

[Outro]
Oh, oh
Now, man needs a woman
Man got to have a woman
Hе needs a woman or a girl
He needs a woman
Man make evеrything he can
But a woman makes a better man
Man needs a woman
Man think about anything
But money can't buy him love
Face the fact
You've gotta face the fact
Man needs a woman
He needs a woman a girl
Oh, oh-oh!
Man needs a woman
He needs a woman
