Artist/Band: Ice Cube
Lyrics for Song: It's A Man's World
Lyrics for Album: Featuring...Ice Cube



Women theyÂ’re good for nothing no maybe one thing
To serve needs to my ding-a-ling
IÂ’m a man who loves the one-night stand
Cause after I do ya
Huh I never knew ya
Cause to kick it man it gives me the fits
They wanna lay with they nose under your armpits
Ice cube wonÂ’t wait so give it up cow
After we do it you can go home now
IÂ’m a brother with a big long...

(yo-yo)
First of all let me tell you my name itÂ’s yo-yo
When down on a girl first the fist and thatÂ’s a no-no
Yo-yo thinks the kitchen sink should be thrown in
Niggas be scheming and fiending to stick the bone in
No, yo-yoÂ’s not a hoe or a whore
And if thatÂ’s what youÂ’re here for
Exit through the door
ThereÂ’s more
To see of me but youÂ’re blind so
Women like me are fading brothers in the 9-0

(ice cube)
Ay what up buttercupper miss yo-yo
I know you like to rap and like to flow so
But when it comes to hip-hop this is a manÂ’s world
Stay down and play the playground you little girl

(yo-yo)
What youÂ’re saying I donÂ’t consider it as rapping
Cause youÂ’re on rewind and IÂ’m the new whatÂ’s-happening
It never fails IÂ’ll always get respect
And you lose so take a rain check

(ice cube)
Hell no cause you know that IÂ’m first and youÂ’re second
If it wasnÂ’t for me you probably be pregnant
And barefoot complaining that your back is aching
Shaking and faking while IÂ’m bringing home the bacon

(yo-yo)
Well youÂ’re mistaken
ItÂ’s not going that far
I make brothers like you play the back yard
You used to flow with the title but I took it
Bring home the bacon but find another hoe to cook it

(ice cube)
Damn it look it
Cause youÂ’re talking a lot of bull

(yo-yo)
Well IÂ’m not your puppet so donÂ’t even try to pull

(ice cube)
This is a manÂ’s world thank you very much

(yo-yo)
But it wouldnÂ’t be a damn thing without a womanÂ’s touch

break

(ice cube)
Ah miss yo-yo so what gives
I hear females always talkin about womenÂ’s lib
Well get your own crib
And stay there
Instead of having more babies for the welfare
Cause if you donÂ’t IÂ’ll label you a gold digger
The name is ice cube you know that I ainÂ’t the nigga
For you to look at when your hair get nappy
So take a piece of the pole and be happy

(yo-yo)
Hell no because to me youÂ’re not a thriller
You come in the room with your three-inch killer
Thinking you can do damage to my backbone
Leave your child in the yard until itÂ’s full-grown
IÂ’m a put it like this my man
Without us your hand would be your best friend
So give us credit like you know you should
If I donÂ’t look good you donÂ’t look good

(ice cube)
I doubt it baby cause weÂ’re still most dominant

(yo-yo)
But you donÂ’t know how funky that I can get

(ice cube)
This is a manÂ’s world thank you very much

(yo-yo)
But it wouldnÂ’t be a damn thing without a womanÂ’s touch

break

(ice cube)
Man women I put a lot of fear in em
Cause I had it up to here with em
Drink a beer with em
No way cause I can only deal with em about an hour every day
Yeah if you know what I mean baby

(yo-yo-)
Well I guess now that I think about it I think maybe
If you was more of a man instead of faking it
Women deserve the credit when theyÂ’re making it

(ice cube)
Yeah so whatÂ’s the problem

(yo-yo)
Well I think we solved it
I know they know the best male from whoÂ’s doggin it

(ice cube)
Yeah I admit you can flow

(yo-yo)
Well thatÂ’s true

(ice cube)
But you see IÂ’m a pro with the bank too

(yo-yo)
Yeah I can see you got it good

(ice cube)
Oh that I know

(yo-yo)
But you see youÂ’re not better than yo-yo
The brand-new intelligent black lady

(ice cube)
YouÂ’re kinda dope but you still canÂ’t fade me

(yo-yo)
So what up then

(ice cube)
Girl what you tryin to do

(yo-yo)
To prove a black woman like me can bring the funk through

(ice cube)
This is a manÂ’s world thank you very much

(yo-yo)
But it wouldnÂ’t be a damn thing without a womanÂ’s touch

(ice cube)
Or a big butt...


It's A Man's World

Released on Ice Cube's 1992 debut album, 'It's A Man's World' stands as a defining track of West Coast G-Funk and gangsta rap. The song features Ice Cube's signature delivery over a smooth, synth-driven backdrop that became a staple of the genre during the early 1990s. As a lead single from 'The Predator,' the recording captures the raw energy and social commentary characteristic of Cube's early work, influencing countless artists who followed. Its enduring legacy lies in its ability to blend melodic hooks with hard-hitting lyrics, cementing Ice Cube's status as a pioneer of the genre and establishing a template for future hip-hop recordings.
