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 



Chorus: 

Sisters are doin' it for themselves 

Standin' on their own two feet 

And ringin' on their own bells 

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 

Woman to woman 

We're singin' with you 

The inferior sex 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 



(chorus) 



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 





Well 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 

iIt is no longer true 

So we're comin' out of the kitchen 



'Cause there's somethin' we forgot to say to you 





(chorus) 





Sisters are doin’ it for themselves (repeat
