Women like me are fading brothers in the 9-0
After we do it, you can go home, now
So take a piece of the pole and be happy
To prove a black woman like me can bring the funk through
Hell no, 'cause you know that I'm first and you're second
Man, women, I put a lot of fear in 'em
But it wouldn't be a damn thing without a woman's touch
Well, you're mistaken, it's not going that far
But you see you're not better than Yo-Yo
The name is Ice Cube, you know that I ain't the nigga
This is a man's world
If it wasn't for me, you probably be pregnant
Miss Yo-Yo so what gives?
Shaking and faking, while I'm bringing home the bacon
This is a man's world
This is a man's world
This is a man's world
This is a man's world
I doubt it, baby, 'cause we're still most dominant
I'm a man who loves the one night stand
The brand new intelligent black lady
You come in the room with your three inch killer
No way, 'cause I can only deal with 'em about an hour every day
'Cause I had it up to here with 'em, drink a beer with 'em
I hear females always talkin' about women's lib
'Cause after I do ya, I never knew ya
Ay, what up buttercupper Miss Yo-Yo?
Yeah, if you know what I mean, baby
Instead of having more babies for the welfare
So give us credit like you know you should
This is a man's world
Exit through the door, there's more
If you was more of a man instead of faking it
Women deserve the credit when they're making it
But you see, I'm a pro with the banks too
Yeah, I admit you can flow, well, that's true
This is a man's world
'Cause to kick it, man, it gives me the fits
Yeah, I can see you got it good, oh, that I know
This is a man's world
What you're saying? I don't consider it as rapping
Well, I guess, now that I think about it, I think maybe
This is a man's world, thank you very much
You're kinda dope but you still can't fade me
But it wouldn't be a damn thing without a woman's touch or a big butt
I make brothers like you, play the back yard
They wanna lay with they nose under your armpits
If I don't look good, you don't look good
But when it comes to hip-hop, this is a man's world
Stay down and play the playground, you little girl
Well, I'm not your puppet so don't even try to pull
This is a man's world
This is a man's world, thank you very much
To see of me but you're blind so
Yeah so what's the problem?
I know you like to rap and like to flow so
'Cause you're on rewind and I'm the new what's happening
This is a man's world
Bring home the bacon but find another hoe to cook it
This is a man's world
This is a man's world
And you lose so take a rain check
I'm a brother with a big long
This is a man's world
It never fails, I'll always get respect
And barefoot complaining that your back is aching
Well, I think we solved it
This is a man's world
But it wouldn't be a damn thing without a woman's touch
So what up then? Girl, what you tryin' to do?
Damn it, look it, 'cause you're talking a lot of bull
Leave your child in the yard until it's full grown
This is a man's world
And if that's what you're here for
Yo-Yo thinks the kitchen sink should be thrown in
This is a man's world
Without us your hand would be your best friend
This is a man's world
I'ma put it like this, my man
This is a man's world
Hell no, because to me you're not a thriller
For you to look at when your hair get nappy
But you don't know how funky that I can get
Well, get your own crib and stay there
I know, they know the best male from who's doggin' it
You used to flow with the title but I took it
No, Yo-Yo's not a hoe or a whore
Thinking you can do damage to my backbone
This is a man's world
This is a man's world
This is a man's world
This is a man's world
Niggas be scheming and fiending to stick the bone in
First of all, let me tell you my name, it's Yo-Yo
This is a man's world
Ice Cube won't wait so give it up, cow
When down on a girl first, the fist and that's a no-no
'Cause if you don't, I'll label you a Gold Digger
This is a man's world, thank you very much
This is a man's world
This is a man's world
