Courtesy of Schoolhouse Rock! America Rock, I created this stereo remix on Splitter.<br />Happy International Women's Day, everyone.<br /><br />Lyrics:<br />(Yeah)<br />(Hurray!)<br /><br />Now you have heard of Women's Rights,<br />And how we've tried to reach new heights.<br />If we're "all created equal"...<br />That's us too!<br /><br />(Yeah!)<br /><br />But you will proba ... bly not recall<br />That it's not been too ... too long at all,<br />Since we even had the right to<br />Cast a vote.<br /><br />(Well!)<br /><br />Well, sure, some men bowed down and called us "Mrs." (Yeah!)<br />Let us hang the wash out and wash the dishes, (Huh!)<br />But when the time rolled around to elect a president...<br /><br />What did they say, Sister, (What did they say?)<br /><br />They said, uh, "See ya later, alligator,<br />And don't forget my ... my mashed potatoes,<br />'Cause I'm going downtown to cast my vote for president."<br /><br />Oh, we were suffering until suffrage,<br />Not a woman here could vote, no matter what age,<br />Then the 19th Amendment struck down that restrictive rule. (Oh yeah!)<br /><br />And now we pull down on the lever,<br />Cast our ballots and we endeavor<br />To improve our country, state, county, town, and school.<br /><br />(Tell 'em 'bout it!)<br /><br />Those pilgrim women who ...<br />Who braved the boat<br />Could cook the turkey, but they ...<br />They could not vote.<br />Even Betsy Ross who sewed the flag was left behind that first election day.<br /><br />(What a shame, Sisters!)<br /><br />Then Susan B. Anthony (Yeah!) and Julia Howe,<br />(Lucretia!) Lucretia Mott, (and others!) they showed us how;<br />They carried signs and marched in lines<br />Until at long last the law was passed.<br /><br />Oh, we were suffering until suffrage,<br />Not a woman here could vote, no matter what age,<br />Then the 19th Amendment struck down that restrictive rule. (Oh yeah!)<br /><br />And now we pull down on the lever,<br />Cast our ballots and we endeavor<br />To improve our country, state, county, town, and school. (Right On! Right On!)<br /><br />Yes the 19th Amendment<br />Struck down that restrictive rule. (Right On! Right On!)<br /><br />Yes the 19th Amendment<br />Struck down that restrictive rule.<br />(Yeah, yeah!<br />Yeah, yeah!<br />Right on!<br />We got it now!)<br /><br />Since 1920...<br />Sisters, unite!<br />Vote on!<br />
