It's A Man's World Lyrics
Luciano Pavarotti & James Brown
Lyrics
This is a man's world,
this is a man's world and
But it wouldn't be nothing, nothing, nothing
without a woman or a girl
You see, man made the cars
to take us over the road
Man made the trains
to carry heavy loads
Man made electric lights
to take us out of the dark
and Man made the boat for the water,
like my bible says Noah. made the ark
This is a man's world
But it wouldn't be nothing, nothing, nothing
without a woman or a girl
I'uomo rincorre il potere ma lui non sa
che il grande limiti ad essere come si parrá
nel palmo stringe un ‘idea
che non vive
che nella sua fantasia… volle
se non si accorde che poi
nulla ha piú senso te
si vive solo per sé
Man thinks about a little bitty baby girls
and a baby boys
Man makes then happy
because man makes them toys
And after man made other things he can
Man makes liras, pesos, dollars, rupees
to buy for every good woman and every man
This is a man's world,
(Nulla ha piú senso te)
Si vive solo per sé
(But it wouldn't be nothing, without a woman or a girl)
Solo per sé
He's lost in the wilderness,
He's lost (se non si accorde che poi)
In bitterness (nulla ha piú senso te)
Si vive solo per sé, solo per sé
Solo per sé
