Lyrics
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
Listen to me now
Let me tell you
This is a man's world
This is a man's world
But it wouldn't be nothing
Nothing, nothing without a woman or a girl
Yeah, yeah
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Man made the car
To take us over the road
Man made the train
To carry the heavy load
Man made the electro light
To take us out of the dark
Man made the boat for the water
Like he told me
That Noah made the ark
This is a man's world
Oh, oh, nothing
Without a woman or a girl
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Man thinks about a little bit of baby girls
And a baby boys
Man make them happy
Because man makes them toys
And after man made everything, everything he can
You know that man makes money
To buy from other man
Oh, oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
This is a man world
But it wouldn't be nothing
Without a woman or a girl
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
Ah-be-ba
Ah-be-ba
I feel good
I wanna tell everybody we're there, am I right?
I think you're out of sight
Everybody, oh my love, huh
