paroles de chanson It's A Man's Man's Man's World - Live At The Apollo Theater/1967 - James Brown & The Famous Flames

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
I'll say it one more time
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
Now looky here
You see, man made the car 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, a man's, a man's world
But it wouldn't be nothing, nothing without a woman or a girl
Looky here
Man thinks about a little bit 'a baby girls and 'a baby boys
Man make them happy because man make them toys
But after man make everything, everything he can
Do you know that man makes money to buy from other man
This is a man's, a man's, a man's world
But it wouldn't be nothing, nothing without a woman or a girl
Looky here
But if a man needs a woman
A man needs a woman, alone he got to have a woman now
Man, man can make everything he can
But a woman makes a better man
So baby, don't worry, don't worry
Don't worry about the peeling falling from the ceiling
But just be there when I get the feeling
Uh, uh, uh, uh
Baby don't worry, don't worry about the motion of the ocean
But just be there when I take a notion
Uh, uh, do you know what I'm talking about, uh
Say it one more time, uh
The man, the man that don't have a woman
The man, the man that don't have a woman
He's lost, in the wilderness
The man, the man that don't have a woman
He's lost, in bitterness
The man, the man, the man that don't have a woman
He's lost, in loneliness
Help me somebody
Help me baby, help me right now
Uh, uh, uh, uh
A few years ago, a young man
He stepped right on the stage
And he looked at the audience
And he started to singing a song, that goes something like this
I'd like to love you tomorrow
Like I love you today
I'm so weak, so don't take my heart away
Come on, come on, come on, come on girl
Come on, come on, help me now
Sometimes, sometimes,
Sometimes your friends they don't understand you
Do you know what I'm talking about
I said do you know what I'm talking about
Sometimes, sometimes,
Your loved ones they don't understand you
You know it make you feel so bad
Do you know it make you feel so bad now
It make you wanna walk up to your baby and look her right dead in the eye
Say to her, and say it real soft, baby, baby, baby, oh baby now
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby do you, do you know what they done to me
Do you know what happened to me baby
I was standing there, facing, facing all those people now
Do you know what it took, it took eight men and four women
It took eight men and four women, they found me guilty
They found me guilty, I was guilty of loving you
Do you know what you made me do
I walked away, dropped my head, and this is what I said
I said baby, you gonna make me cry, oh yes you are
You gonna make me cry
Looky here
I gotta sing this song, but there's one thing I wanna say right here
Wilson Pickett said in the midnight hour
That's when our love comes tumbling down
I know in the midnight hour
That's when a lot of peoples love comes tumbling down
But some people, some people like to wait, to the wee wee hours of the morning
When everybody get mellow
When you're feeling good, uh
And when the clock strike one
My love for you has just begun
When the clock strike two
I want you to know it's just me and you
But when the clock strike three
I said when the clock strike three
I don't want your boyfriend bothering me
But when the clock strike four
Baby let yourself go
When the clock strike four
I just wanna do it, uh
Looky here
But when the clock strike five
You throw your arms around me and tell me I'm the sweetest man alive, uh
But when,
You don't wanna hear six do you
You wanna hear six, okay
When the clock strike six
I said when the clock strike six
You said baby baby baby baby how did I ever get in this fix
And then I feel so good I wanna scream
Do you feel alright
Do you feel alright people
Let me hear you scream along with me, come on, uh
You sure gotta whole lotta soul
Can you scream just a little bit louder now
Just a little bit louder
One more time
Help me now, help me baby
I wanna sing this song
I wanna sing this song for the people who love someone
I wanna sing this song for the ones who said don't leave me bewildered
I wanna sing this song for the ones who said if you leave me I'll go crazy
And then I wanna sing this song for the prisoners of love
I wanna sing this song for the ones who said when you get tired of what you got, try me
I wanna sing this song for the ones who said baby you don't have to weep no more but all you gotta do is let yourself go
I wanna sing this song for the ones who said you done me wrong, please, please, please, please, don't leave me
So I got something right here that I gotta say, that was said in 1966, such a true song, like this
When a man loves a woman
Can't keep his mind on nothing else
He'll give up, give up the world
Can I sing this song one more time
People is it alright if I sing this song one more time
When a man loves a woman
It's a man's world
Just don't let me break down baby
Don't let me break down baby
Don't let me break down baby
And don't make me beg you so much baby
Don't make me beg baby
But I ain't too proud to beg
I gotta tell it like it is now darling
Sometimes I feel like I'm losing you
