E G# C#m E A A7 E (intro)
(E)Woman is the (G#)nigger of the (C#m)world(E)
(A)Yes she is(A7)…(E)think about it
Women is the nigger of the world
Think about it…do something about it.
G A
(F#m)We make her paint her face and (D)dance
(A)If she won’t be a slave, we say that she don’t (E)love us
(F#m)If she’s real, we say she’s trying to be a (D)man
(G)While putting her down we pretend that she’s (B)above us
Women is the nigger of the world…yes she is
If you don’t believe me, take a look at the one you’re with
Women is the slave of the slaves
Ah yeh…better scream about it.
sax solo (same chords as chorus)
We make her bear and raise our children
And then we leave her flat for being a fat old mother hen
We tell her home is the only place she should be
Then we complain that she’s too unworldy to be our friend
Woman is the nigger of the world…yes she is
If you don’t believe me, take a look at the one your with
Women is the slave to the slaves
yeh…think about it
guitar solo (chorus chords)
We insult her every day on TV
And wonder why she has no guts or confidence
When she’s young we kill her will to be free
While telling her not to be so smart we put her down for being so dumb
Woman is the nigger of the world
Yes she is…if you don’t believe me, take a look at the one your with
Women is the slave to the slaves
Yes she is…if you believe me, you better scream about it.
(F#M)We make her paint her face and (D)dance. (repeat over and over again)
