Jason Isbell - It's a Man's, Man’s, Man’s World Lyrics

This is a man's world
This is a man's world
But it wouldn't be nothin'
Nothin' without a woman or a girl

You see, man made the cars
But we make the road
Man made the train
We're still carrying the heavy load
Man made electric light
We find our way out the dark

Man made the boat for water
You run away from mother earth's arms
This is a man's world
Wouldn't be nothing without a woman or a girl

This is a man's world
But it wouldn't be nothin' without a woman
Or a girl

Just think about our little bitty baby girls
And our baby boys
Man makes them happy
Cause man buys them toys
And after man makes everything he can
You know that man makes money
He makes all that money
To steal from another man

This is a man's world
A man's world wouldn't be nothin'
Nothin' without a woman or a girl

We're fire
We're pouring rain
Caretakers
The ones you blame

You bring your baggage
And cause us shame

You're not the only ones
Living in a world full of pain
Full of pain

You say it's a man's world
But you wouldn't have
Or know
Or be in the world
Without a woman or a girl
