Now there was a time when we 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 (we say) Sisters are doin' it for themselves Standin' on their own two feet And ringin' on their own bells 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, yeah Woman to woman We're singin' with you The inferior sex had 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, hoh hoh 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 We ain't layin' plans Don't ya know a man still loves a woman And a woman still loves a man (Just the same) Sisters are doin' it for themselves Ah there was a time, ah 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 Go on girl, go for it, go for it Sisters are doin' it for themselves Step right to it girl Sisters are doin' it, 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, ah, ah, ah Doin' it, doin' it, doin' it, doin' it Sisters are doin' it for themselves, yeah yeah Sisters are doin' it for themselves People pay to hear what we say Standin' it on our own two feet, yeah Bring it on down and back Here we come now
