Here's the actual attribution

Look, I love the Dead, but this is a classic calypso tune. I prefer Harry Belefinte's rendition.

TIL. I just googled the phrase in quotes - didn't actually know the song.

It's actually an old calypso song the dead covered. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man_Smart_(Woman_Smarter) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mAHfo49iN1w

Man Smart, Woman Smarter was Harry Belafonte. I came across the song through the Grateful Dead.
