Now there was a time
|
when we used to say
|
that behind every great man
|
there has to be a great woman.
|
|
Well, in these times of change
|
you know that it is no longer true.
|
So we're coming out of the kitchen
|
'cause theres something we forgot to say to you.
|
|
|
We know sisters are doing it for themselves.
|
Standing on their own two feet,
|
Ringing on their own bells.
|
|
Sisters are doing it for themselves.
|
|
Now this is a song to celebrate
|
the conscious liberation of the female state.
|
Mother daughters and their daughters too will know
|
Woman to woman we'll sing it with you.
|
Now the inferior sex has got a new exterior.
|
We've got doctors, lawyers politicians too
|
Oh yeah
|
Everybody take a look around.
|
Can you see, can you see, can you see?
|
|
Theres a woman right next to you.
|
Whoa yeah!
|
Sisters are doing it for themselves.
|
Standing on their own two feet.
|
Ringing on their own bells
|
Sisters are doing it for themselves
|
|
We ain't makin stories
|
No we ain't makin plans
|
|
Don't you know that a man
|
still loves a woman
|
and a woman still loves a man
|

|

We're doing it, doing it, doing it, doing it
|
Sisters are doign it for themselves
|
All of my sisters, all of my sisters
|
Sisters are doing it for themselves
