歌手:Aretha Franklin
专辑:《Who's Zoomin' Who?》

作词 : Lennox, Stewart
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 coming out of the kitchen
Cause there's something we forgot to say to you (we say)

Sisters are doin' it for themselves
Standing on their own two feet
And ringing 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 singing with you
Now the "inferior ***" 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
Theres a woman right next to you

Sisters are doin' it for themselves
Standing on their own two feet
And ringing on their own bells
Sisters are doin' it for themselves

Now we ain't making stories
And we ain't laying plans
Cause a man still loves a woman
And a woman still loves a man (Just the same though)

Sisters are doin' it for themselves
Now 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"
But in these times of change you know
That it's no longer true.
So we're coming out of the kitchen
Cause there's something we forgot to say to you (we say)

Sisters are doin' it for themselves
Standing on their own two feet
And ringing on their own bells
Sisters are doin' it for themselves

Sisters are doin' it for themselves
Sisters are doin' it, doin' it, doin' it, doin' it
Sisters are doin' it for themselves
Standing on their own two feet
And ringing on their own bells
Sisters are doin' it for themselves
Thank you, I'll get it myself
