Lyrics Say It Loud, I'm Black And I'm Proud, Pt. 1 & 2 (Single Version) - James Brown

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
This is a man's world
This is a man's world
But it would be nothing
Without a woman or a girl
You see, man made the cars to take us over the roads
Man made the trains to carry the 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
This is a man's world
But it wouldn't be nothing
Nothing without a woman or a girl
Man thinks about a little bit of baby girls and baby boys
Man makes them happy 'cause man makes them toys
And after man make everything he can
Man makes money to buy from other man
This is a man's world
But it wouldn't be nothing
Nothing without a woman or a girl
Oh, now man needs a woman
Man got to have a woman
He needs a woman or a girl
He needs a woman
Man makes everything he can
But a woman makes a better man
Man needs a woman
Man thinks about anything but
But money can't buy him love
Face the fact, you gotta face the fact
Man needs a woman
He needs a woman or a girl, oh oh
Man needs a woman
He needs a woman
