Sisters Are Doin' It for Themselves

Eurythmics and Aretha Franklin

English
Now there was a time when they used to say
That behind every - great man.
There had to be a - great woman.
But in these times of change you know
That it's no longer true.
So we're comin' out of the kitchen
'Cause there's somethin' we forgot to say to you (we say)

[Chorus]
Sisters are doin' it for themselves.
Standin' on their own two feet.
And ringin' on their own bells.
Sisters are doin' it for themselves.

Now this is a song to celebrate
The conscious liberation of the female state!
Mothers, daughters and their daughters too.
Woman to woman
We're singin' with you.
The inferior sex got a new exterior
We got doctors, lawyers, politicians too.
Everybody, take a look around.
Can you see, can you see, can you see
There's a woman right next to you.

[Chorus]

Now we ain't makin' stories
And we ain't layin' plans
'cause a man still loves a woman
And a woman still loves a man
(just a same though)
Ahora bien, hubo un tiempo en que solían decir
Lo que hay detrás de cada... un gran hombre.
Tenía que haber una... gran mujer.
Pero en estos tiempos de cambio sabes
Que ya no es verdad.
Así que saldremos de la cocina.
Porque hay algo que olvidamos decirte (decimos)

[Coro]
Las hermanas lo hacen por sí mismas.
Parados sobre sus propios pies.
Y tocando sus propias campanas.
Las hermanas lo hacen por sí mismas.

Ahora esta es una canción para celebrar.
¡La liberación consciente del estado femenino!
Madres, hijas y sus hijas también.
De mujer a mujer
Estamos cantando contigo.
El sexo inferior adquirió un nuevo exterior.
También tenemos médicos, abogados y políticos.
Todos, miren a su alrededor.
¿Puedes ver, puedes ver, puedes ver?
Hay una mujer justo a tu lado.

[Coro]

Ahora no estamos haciendo historias
Y no estamos haciendo planes
porque un hombre todavía ama a una mujer
Y una mujer todavía ama a un hombre
(aunque es lo mismo)
