CUT - Sisters Are Doin' It For Themselves

Now there was a time
When they used to say
That behind every great man
There had to be a great woman
But in these times of change
You know that it's no longer true
So we're comin' out of the kitchen
'Cause there's somethin' we forgot to say to you,

We say, sisters are doin' it for themselves
Standin' on their own two feet
Ringin' on their own bells,
We say, sisters are doin' it for themselves

Now this is a song
To celebrate
The conscious liberation
Of the female state
Woman to woman
We're singin' this with you
Can you see, can you see
There's a woman right next to you
Can you see, can you see,
There's a woman right next to you

We say sisters are doin' it for themselves
Standin' on their own two feet
Ringin' on their own bells
We say, sisters are doin' it for themselves

Now we ain't makin' stories
Oh, we ain't layin' plans
Don't you know a man still loves a woman
And a woman still loves a man

Ok, ok
Let's hit it
Go

We say sisters are doin' it for themselves
Standin' on their own two feet
Ringin' on their own bells
We say, sisters are doin' it for themselves

Now there was a time
When they used to say
That behind every great man
There had to be a great woman

We say sisters are doin' it for themselves
Standin' on their own two feet
Ringin' on their own bells
We say, sisters are doin' it for themselves
