Now there was a timewhen we used to saythat behind every great manthere has to be a great woman.Well, in these times of changeyou know that it is no longer true.So we're coming out of the kitchen'cause theres something we forgot to say to you.We know sisters are doing it for themselves.Standing on their own two feet,Ringing on their own bells.Sisters are doing it for themselves.Now this is a song to celebratethe conscious liberation of the female state.Mother daughters and their daughters too will knowWoman to woman we'll sing it with you.Now the inferior sex has got a new exterior.We've got doctors, lawyers politicians tooOh yeahEverybody take a look around.Can you see, can you see, can you see?Theres a woman right next to you.Whoa yeah!Sisters are doing it for themselves.Standing on their own two feet.Ringing on their own bellsSisters are doing it for themselvesWe ain't makin storiesNo we ain't makin plansDon't you know that a manstill loves a womanand a woman still loves a man(Guitar solo)Now there was a time (there was a time)when we used to say (when we used to say)that behind every great manthere has to be a great woman.Well, in these times of changeyou know that it is no longer trueSo we're coming out of the kitchencause there's something we forgot to say to youSisters are doing it for themselvesStanding on their own two feet.Ringing on their own bellsSisters are doing it for themselvesSisters are doing it for themselvesWe're doing it, doing it, doing it, doing itSisters are doign it for themselvesAll of my sisters, all of my sistersSisters are doing it for themselves
