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 trains to carry heavy loads
Man made electric light to take us out of the dark
Man made the boat for the water, like Noah made the ark

You see, this is a man's, man's, man's, man's world
But it wouldn't be nothing without a woman or a girl

Man thinks about a little baby, baby girls and boys
Man makes then happy 'cause man makes them litlle toys

Oh, this is a man's, man's world
But it wouldn't be nothing without a woman or a girl

He's lost in the wilderness
He's lost in bitterness

Oh, this is a man's world
Oh, and it's nothing without a woman
