Woman is the nigger of the world
Yes, she is think about it
Woman is the nigger of the world
Think about it, do something about it
We make her paint her face and dance
If she won't be a slave we say that
she don't love us
If she's real, we say
she's trying to be a man
While putting her down
we pretend that she's above us
Woman is the nigger of the world
Yes, she is, if you don't believe me
take a look at the one you're with
Woman is the slave of the slaves
Ah yeah, better scream about it
Saxophone solo over chorus chords
We make her bear and raise our children
And then we leave her flat for being a fat
old mother hen
We tell her home is the only place
she should be
Then we complain that
she's too unworldly to be our friend
Woman is the nigger of the world
Yes, she is, if you don't believe me
take a look at the one you're with
Woman is the slave to the slaves
Yeah, alright
We insult her every day on TV
And wonder why she has
no guts or confidence
When she's young we kill
her will to be free
While telling her not to be so smart
we put her down for being so dumb
Oh well, woman is the nigger of the world
Yes, she is, if you don't believe me
take a look at the one you're with
Woman is the slave to the slaves
Yes, she is, if you believe me,
you better scream about it
We make her paint her face and dance
We make her paint her face and dance
We make her paint her face and dance
We make her paint her face and dance
We make her paint her face and dance
We make her paint her face and dance
Me singing Me playing
