Vocal production is so much better than on his 80s releases
My daddy always told me it's a man's world
He said boys are boys and girls are girls
But that old double standard ain't hip these days
'Cause you got modern women they got modern ways
It's fifty-fifty, fifty-fifty
Now if you wanna make her happy
It ain't no riddle
Keep everything split right down the middle
Fifty-fifty, fifty-fifty
There's workin' women with titles and positions
And men at home with kids a-doin' dishes
Changin' roles, changin' times
Ask any woman who toes the line
It's fifty-fifty, fifty-fifty
Now if you wanna make her happy
It ain't no riddle
Keep everything split right down the middle
Fifty-fifty, fifty-fifty
So let me give you boys some good advice
If you think I'm wrong you'd better think twice
'Cause if you think you're falling out of love
You'd better plan on dividin' things up
It's fifty-fifty, fifty-fifty
Now if you wanna make her happy
It ain't no riddle
Keep everything split right down the middle
Fifty-fifty, fifty-fifty
Yeah if you wanna make her happy
It ain't no riddle
Keep everything split right down the middle
Fifty-fifty, fifty-fifty
Split it up
Yeah, yeah
