Cab Calloway - Ba lyrics

(James Brown)

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 electro 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 a little baby girls and a baby boys

Man makes then happy 'cause man makes them toys

And after man made 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
