Lyrics

Now there was a time

when they used to say

that be hind ev ’ry great man

there had to be a great wom an.

But oh, in these times of change you know that it’s no long er true.

So, we’re com in’ out of the kitch en ’cause there’s (C)some thin’ we for got to say to you.

We say: (Ab)Sis ters are (Bb)do in’ it (Cm)for them selves,

stand in’ on their (Ab)own two feet

and (Cm)ring in’ on (Fm7)their own bells.

(Ab)Sis ters are (Bb)do in’ it (Cm)for them selves.

Now this is a song

to cel e brate

the con scious lib er a tion of the fe male state.

Moth ers, daugh ters, and their daugh ters, too,

yeah,

wom an to wom an,

we’re sing in’ with you.

The in fer i or sex

has got a new ex ter i or.

We got doc tors, law yers, pol i ti cians, too.

Ev ’ry bod y,

take a look a round.

Can you see, can you see, can you see there’s a wom an right (C7)next to you?

We say: (C)Now

(Db)we ain’t mak in’ sto ries

and (Bb)we ain’t lay in’ plans.

Don’t you know that a man still loves a wom an

and a (Bb)wom an still loves a man.

Just the same, oh.

(Ab)Sis ters are (Bb)do in’ it (Cm)for them selves,

stand in’ on their (Ab)own two feet

and (Cm)ring in’ on (Fm7)their own bells.

(Ab)Sis ters are (Bb)do in’ it (Cm)for them selves.

(Ab)Sis ters are (Bb)do in’ it (Cm)for them selves,

stand in’ on their (Ab)own two feet

and (Cm)ring in’ on (Fm7)their own bells.

(Ab)Sis ters are (Bb)do in’ it (Cm)for them selves.
