Sisters Are Doin' It for Themselves-Eurythmics/Annie Lennox/Dave Stewart/Aretha Franklin

Now there was a time when they used to say That behind every great man there had to be a great woman Now 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 said "Sisters are doin' it for themselves" Standin' on their own two feet And ringin' on their own bells We said "Sisters are doin' it for themselves" Now this is a song to celebrate The conscious liberation of the female state Mothers daughters and their daughters too oh yeah Woman to woman we're singin' with you The inferior s*x has got a new exterior We got doctors lawyers politicians too Everybody take a look around Can you see can you see Can you see there's a woman right next to you We said "Sisters are doin' it for themselves " oh yes we are Standin' on their own two feet And ringin' on their own bells Sisters are doin' it for themselves Now we ain't makin' stories and we ain't layin' plans Don't you know that a man still loves a woman When a woman still loves a man Just a same though Sisters are doin' it for themselves There was a time when they used to say That behind every great man there had to be a great woman 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 And ringin' on their own bells Sisters are doin' it for themselves Sisters are doin' it for themselves yes Sisters are doin' it doin' it doin' it doin' it doin' it doin' it Sisters are doin' it for themselves oh oh yes Sisters are doin' it for themselves Sisters are doin' it for themselves I said "Sisters are doin' it for themselves" Standin' on their own two feet And ringin' on their own bells Sisters are doin' it for themselves Sisters are doin' it for themselves Sisters are doin' it for themselves
