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
歌手和歌曲简介（抄自Wikipedia:）
The song is written in the key of E-flat minor. The lyrics, which Rolling Stone characterized as "biblically chauvinistic",attribute all the works of modern civilization (the car, the train, the boat ("Like Noah made the ark"), and the electric light) to the efforts of men, but claim that it all would "mean nothing without a woman or a girl".The song also states that man made toys for the baby boys and girls, and comments about the fact that "Man makes money" to buy from other men. Before the song's fade, Brown states that man is lost in his bitterness and in the wilderness. Brown's co-writer and onetime girlfriend, Betty Jean Newsome, wrote the lyrics based on her own observations of the relations between the sexes.
"It's a Man's Man's Man's World" became a staple of Brown's live shows for the rest of his career. Its slow, simmering groove and declamatory vocal line made it suitable for long, open-ended performances incorporating spoken ruminations on love and loss and sometimes interpolations from other songs. It appears on almost all of Brown's live albums starting with 1967's Live at the Garden. Brown also recorded a big band jazz arrangement of the song with the Louie Bellson Orchestra for his 1970 album Soul on Top.
Cash Box described the song as a "slow-shufflin’ emotion-charged item which points out that men are quite incomplete without women to love ’em."
In 2004, "It's a Man's Man's Man's World" was ranked number 123 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest songs of all time.
In 2010, the 1966 recording of the song by James Brown on King Records was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame.
