This is a man's world This is a man's world This is a man's world But it wouldn't mean nothing, nothing Not a woman or a girl You see, man made the car To take us over the road Man made the train To carry the heavy load Man made the electric light To take us out the dark Man made the flow for the water Like a lower made the yard You see, this is a man's, man's, man's Man's world But it don't mean nothing Not a woman or a girl Man thinks about his little baby, baby girl And boy Man makes them happy Cause man makes them little toys Oh, this is a man's, man's world But it wouldn't mean nothing Not a woman or a girl Oh, she's a wilderness Oh, she's a bitterness Oh, this is a man's world Oh, and it's nothing Without a woman
