this is a manæ?¯ world
this is a manæ?¯ world
but it wouldnæ?° be nothing, nothing
withoutå?  woman or a girl

man made the cars
to take us over the road
man made the trains
to carry the heavy load
man made the electric light
to take us out of the dark
man made the boat for the wter
like Noah made the ark

Refrain

This is a manæ?¯ manæ?¯ manæ?¯ world
But it wouldnæ?° be nothing, nothing
Without a woman or a girl

Man thinks about the baby girls
And the baby boys
Man makes them happy
Cause man made them toys
After man made everything
Everything he can
You know that man makes money
To buy from other men

Refrain

Heæ?¯ lost in the wilderness
Heæ?¯ lost in bitterness

Refrain

Without a womanor a girl, noå?¬o, no, no
Without a woman or a girlThis is a manæ?¯ world, This is a manæ?¯ world
This is a manæ?¯ world, This is a manæ?¯ world
This is a manæ?¯ world, no
