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 You see, man made the cars to take us over the road

Man made the train to carry the heavy load

Man made electric light to take us out of the dark

Man made the boat for the water, like Noah made the ark This is a man's, man's, man's world

But it wouldn't be nothing, nothing without a woman or a girl Man thinks about our little bitty baby girls and our baby boys

Man made them happy, 'cause man made 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 wouldn't be nothing, nothing, not one little thing, without a woman or a girl

He's lost in the wilderness

He's lost in bitterness, he's lost lost
