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 something 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!\" We say, \"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 sex has got a new exterior, We got doctors, lawyers, (Yes we do), 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 say, \"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 And a woman still loves a man? Just a same though!
Sisters are doin' it for themselves!
There was a time (There was a time) when they used to say (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 something 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! (C'mon, yeah, go for it, go for it) Sisters (Sisters) are doin' it for themselves! (Step on, c'mon, do it, girl)
Sisters are doin' it for themselves! (Doin' it, doin' it, doin' it, doin' it, doin' it) Sisters are doin' it for themselves! (Doin' it, doin' it, doin' it, doin' it) Sisters are doin' it for themselves! (Doin' it, doin' it, doin' it, doin' it) Sisters are doin' it for themselves!
I said, \"Sisters are doin' it for themselves, (People pay, hear what we say) Standin' on their own two feet and ringin' on their own bells!\" (Sisters are doin' it for themselves)
Here we come now, doin' it, doin' it, we're doin' it, doin' it! (Sisters are doin' it for themselves)
