lyrics

I grew up by the sea in a beautiful family
I learned to worship God and value equality
I sharpened my brain; no man could tell me to obey
and it was in this way I knew I had to be the change
I was born so lucky
God made a warrior of me

Sister, sister, hey girl you know that we are better together
Misters, misters can’t be the only ones with all of that power

I worked with Garrison in the Anti-Slave Society
Then I formed a branch just for women to speak
I harbored fugitives and spoke at anti-slave conventions
Men tried to quiet me but never could succeed
Some suffragettes put black women in the back but
I upheld my morals of inclusion and empathy

Forget what’s proper and do something that matters
I’m short of stature, but my words stand tall
While all the men are shouting over each other
We’re seeking justice here at Seneca Falls

Sister, sister, I know I can count on you to stand with me
Sisters, sisters, hey girl you know that we are better together
Misters, misters can’t be the only ones with all of that power
