lyrics
SISTERS START YOUR OWN DAMN CHURCH
Written by Roger Campo / ASCAP
Men built the churches
And men built the state
Wrote the unwritten rules
and laws that will subjugate
Women as lesser than
Lesser than men
Ancient, archaic ways, tell me
When will it end
Oh, sisters start your own damn church
You have more than proven the measure of your worth
You don’t need a man to tell you
How to live, In this world
God made a woman
The cradle of life
to save men from the folly
of war and strive
With a body to nourish
a body to bless
And feed all man’s hungers
Feed his soul with her flesh
Oh, sisters start your own damn church
You have more than proven the measure of your worth
You don’t need a man to tell you
How to live
In this world
Oh, sisters start your own damn church
You have hidden secrets love compels you to unearth
You don’t need a man to tell you
How to give
How to love
You don’t need a man to tell you
How to feed a hungry child
You don’t need a man to tell you
You should learn how to smile
You don’t need a man to tell you
How your own damn body works
You don’t need a man to tell you
How to worship his damn church
(Repeat) Sisters start your own
Oh, sisters start your own damn church
You have more than proven the measure of your worth
You don’t need a man to tell you
How to live
In this world
Oh, sisters start your own damn church
You have hidden secrets love compels you to unearth
You don’t need a man to tell you
How to give
How to love
Sisters start your own church, Sisters start your own school
Sisters write your own laws, Sisters make your rules
