Jerry Garcia
Man Smart, Woman Smarter (Live at The Spectrum, Philadelphia, PA, April 5, 1982)
[Verse 1]
Let us put men and women together
See which one is smarter
Some say men, but I say no
The women got the men like a puppet show
[Chorus]
It ain't me - it's the people that say
Men are leading the women astray
I say it's the women today
Smarter than the men in every way
That's right, the women are smarter
That's right, the women are smarter
That's right, the women are smarter
The women are smarter, that's right
(That's right)
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
Little boy sit on the corner and cry
Big man come and he ask him why
He said, "I can't do what the big boys do"
The man sat down and he cried, too
[Chorus]
It ain't me - it's the people that say
Men are leading the women astray
I say it's the women today
Smarter than the men in every way
That's right, the women are smarter
That's right, the women are smarter
That's right, the women are smarter
The women are smarter, that's right
(That's right)
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Ever since the world began
Women been imitating the ways of man
But listen, I've got a plan
Give it up, don't try and understand
[Chorus]
It ain't me - it's the people that say
Men are leading the women astray
I say it's the women today
Smarter than the men in every way
That's right, the women are smarter
That's right, the women are smarter
That's right, the women are smarter
The women are smarter, that's right
(That's right)
[Verse 1 repeated]
Let us put men and women together
See which one is smarter
Some say men, but I say no
The women got the men more than all she know
[Chorus]
It ain't me - it's the people that say
Men are leading the women astray
I say it's the women today
Smarter than the men in every way
That's right, the women are smarter
That's right, the women are smarter
That's right, the women are smarter
The women are smarter, that's right
(That's right)
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
That's right, the women are smarter
That's right, the women are smarter
That's right, the women are smarter
The women are smarter
That's right, the women are smarter
That's right, the women are smarter
That's right, the women are smarter
The women are smarter, that's right, that's right
That's right, the women are smarter
That's right, the women are smarter
That's right, the women are smarter
The women are smarter, that's right
That's right
