CHAINED TO THE RAILS
A Song For International Women's Day
Wake up Little Suzy, there’s work to be ... read moredone
While this cold war is raging, the fight must go on
These are the dark ages and here in Babylon
Your sister’s still chained to the rails
You win some; you lose some you know how it goes
All those hard times and troubles and what have you got to show?
Though it’s one woman, one vote now deep inside we both know
Your sister’s still chained to the rails
Use your pride to fight prejudice and try not to forget
The song of the siren and the brave suffragette
They say attitudes are changing the world over and yet
Your sister’s still chained to the rails
If you can’t stand united, divided you’ll fall
Back in line where mankind’s saved a place for you all
Either up on a pedestal or pinned to the wall
Your sister’s still chained to the rails
A just cause liberation, ah, but what’s in a name?
To the women in bondage who forever remain
Only there to be exploited for society’s gain
Your sisters still chained to the rails
Something old, something borrowed, something long overdue
A sweet dream of equality that could never come true
You burned your bras and your bridges and what good did it do?
Your sister’s still chained to the rails
Now you’re marching for freedom down a thousand dark roads
You’ve come such a long way but you’ve so far to go
So sing it and shout it and let the world know
Your sister’s still chained to the rails
