jack williams - sojourner truth (ain't i a woman?) lyrics

Loading...

[chorus]
ain’t i a woman said sojourner truth, ain’t i a woman?
ain’t i a woman said sojourner truth, ain’t i a woman?

[verse 1]
i can bear the lash, i have borne the lash
when none but jesus heard me
i borne thirteen children, seen most of them sold
sold off into slavery

[chorus]
ain’t i a woman said sojourner truth, ain’t i a woman?
ain’t i a woman said sojourner truth, ain’t i a woman?

[verse 2]
i can work as much and i can eat as much
as any man can when i can get it
i have plowed and planted and gathered into barns
and look at me, i’m a woman

[chorus]
ain’t i a woman said sojourner truth, ain’t i a woman?
ain’t i a woman said sojourner truth, ain’t i a woman?

[bridge]
if the very first woman turned the world upside down
then all of them woman together
can put this world back right side up
then the men just better let ’em
[verse 3]
there’s a man over there says shut my mouth
’cause christ was not a woman
i got only one question for that man
where did your christ come from?

[verse 4]
he came from a woman
he came from a woman
he came from god and a woman and there weren’t no man
man didn’t have a thing to do with it

[chorus]
ain’t i a woman said sojourner truth, ain’t i a woman?
ain’t i a woman said sojourner truth, ain’t i a woman?
ain’t i a woman said sojourner truth, ain’t i a woman?
ain’t i a woman said sojourner truth, ain’t i a woman?
ain’t i a woman?
ain’t i a woman?
