lyrics

Women started marching in 1848
Women started marching, 'way back in 1848
Oh, we're marching yet today 'cause the need is still so great

They finally freed the black man in 1865
Don't you know, they finally, finally freed the black man in 18 and 65
Hey, we're waiting for our turn and our hopes remain alive

Hey now, they said that we could vote in 19 and two oh
But the fight's not over yet; we got a long way still to go
Well, they said that we could vote in 19 and two oh
Oh, well, the fight's not over yet; we got a long way still to go

Alice brought it into Congress in 1923
Alice brought it into Congress in 1923
Well, we still ain't got that ERA.
Now it's up to you and me

Alice died without it; now its up to me and you
Alice Paul died without it; well now it's up to me and you
Oh, it had a new beginning
This time we're gonna push it through

I said that women still are marching, in lines as far as you can see
The struggle will continue 'til we gain equality
Women still are marching in lines as far as you can see
And the struggle will continue until we gain real, I mean real equality.
