Some say, this is great! Now there was a time when we used to say That behind every great man There had to be a great woman Well, times change You know it's no longer true We're coming out of the kitchen 'Cause there's something we forgot to say to you Sisters are doing it for themselves, oh yeah 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 and her daughters and all their daughters too Woman to woman we'll sing it all with you Sisters are doing it for themselves Standing on their own two feet Ringing on their own bells Sisters are doing it for themselves No, we ain't makin' stories No, we ain't layin' plans
A man still loves a woman And a woman still loves a man, yeah It's incredible female power Sisters are doing it for themselves The inferior s** has got a new exterior We've got doctors and lawyers and politicians too And everybody can take a look around Can you see, can you see, can you see? There's a woman sitting right next to you Sisters are doing it for themselves Standing on their own two feet And ringing on their own bells Everybody else do what I'm saying Sisters are doing it for themselves They're standing on their own two feet And ringing on their own bells Sisters are doing it, doing it Doing it, doing it, doing it Sisters are doing it for themselves Sisters are doing it for themselves Sisters are doing it for themselves
