lirik lagu meredith tax - the battle hymn of women
[verse 1]
mine eyes have seen the glory of the flame of women’s rage
kept smoldering for centuries, now burning in this age
we no longer will be prisoners in that same old gilded cage
that’s why we’re marching on
[chorus]
move on over or we’ll move on over you
move on over or we’ll move on over you
move on over or we’ll move on over you
for women’s time has come
[verse 2]
you have told us to speak softly, to be gentle and to smile
expected us to change ourselves with every passing style
said the only work for women was to clean and sweep and file
that’s why we’re marching on
[chorus]
move on over or we’ll move on over you
move on over or we’ll move on over you
move on over or we’ll move on over you
for women’s time has come!
[verse 3]
it is we who’ve done your cooking, done your cleaning, kept your rules
we gave birth to your children and we taught them in your schools
we’ve kept the system running but we’re laying down our tools
that’s why we’re marching on
[chorus]
move on over or we’ll move on over you
move on over or we’ll move on over you
move on over or we’ll move on over you
for women’s time has come
[verse 4]
you think that you can buy us off with crummy wedding rings
you never give us half the profit that our labor brings
our anger eats into us, we’ll no longer bend to kings
that’s why we’re marching on
[chorus]
move on over or we’ll move on over you
move on over or we’ll move on over you
move on over or we’ll move on over you
for women’s time has come
[verse 5]
we have broken through our shackles, now we sing a battle song
we march for liberation and we’re many thousands strong
we’ll build a new society, we’ve waited much too long
that’s why we’re marching on
[chorus]
move on over or we’ll move on over you
move on over or we’ll move on over you
move on over or we’ll move on over you
for women’s time has come
