Man Smart (Woman Smarter)

Ma Smart （Woman Smarter）-Harry Belafonte

I say let us put man and a woman together

To find out which one is smarter

Some say man but I say no

The woman got the man de day should know

And not me but the people they say

That de man are leading de women astray

But I say that the women of today

Smarter than the man in every way

That's right de woman is uh smarter

That's right de woman is uh smarter

That's right de woman is uh smarter that's right that's right

Ever since the world began

Woman was always teaching man

And I you listen to my bid attentively

I goin'tell you how she smarter than me

And not me but the people they say

That de man are leading de women astray

But I say that the women of today

Smarter than the man in every way

Garden of Eden was very nice

Adam never work in Paradise

Eve meet snake Paradise gone

She make Adam work from that day on

And not me but the people they say

But I say that the women of today

Smarter than the man in every way

That's right de woman is uh smarter

That's right de woman is uh smarter

That's right de woman is uh smarter that's right that's right

Something was the strongest man long ago

No one could a beat him as we all know

Until he clash with Deliah on top of the bed

She told them all the strength was in the hair of his head

And not me but the people they say

That de man are leading de women astray

But I say that the women of today

Smarter than the man in every way

That's right de woman is uh smarter

That's right de woman is uh smarter

That's right de woman is uh smarter that's right that's right

You meet a girl at a pretty dance

Thinking that you would stand a chance

Take her home thinking she's alone

Open de door you find her mom home

And not me but the people they say

That de man are leading de women astray

But I say that the women of today

Smarter than the man in every way

Yes she's smarter
