delta rae - hands dirty lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i could raise the crops from the earth
i could raise my children from birth
but when i’m looking for work
they say that job ain’t for her
i could be a good man’s wife
i could give a new child life
but when i fight for my rights
they say no woman no cry

[pre-chorus]
but i ain’t giving up
i can’t count on luck

[chorus]
i get my hands dirty
i show up so early
they show me no mercy
so i just keep working
maybe god could save me
or my boss might pay me
right now no one serves me
maybe their hands are dirty, dirty, dirty

[verse 2]
i could lead impossible missions
occupy the highest positions
but when i ask them to listen
they disregard my opinion
well i ain’t asking no more
i will command the floor
i’m breaking every gl-ss ceiling
i’m building sky scr-ping buildings

[pre-chorus]
and when that next storm comes
i’ll do what i’ve always done

[chorus]
i get my hands dirty
i show up so early
they show me no mercy
so i just keep working
maybe god could save me
or my boss might pay me
am i so unworthy?
or are their hands just dirty, dirty, dirty?

[bridge]
and i have seen the other side of the mountain
where every queen will be afforded her throne
and i will stand beside my sisters
and all persistent resistors
they’ll say i knew it would come true
and i’ll say ‘darling, “me too”

[chorus]
i get my hands dirty
i show up so early
they show me no mercy
so i just keep working
maybe god could save me
or my boss might pay me
right now no one serves me
maybe their hands are dirty

i get my hands dirty
i show up so early
they show me no mercy
so i just keep working
maybe god could save me
or my boss might pay me
am i so unworthy?
or are their hands just dirty, dirty, dirty?
