What is the democracy for which the world is battling
For which we offer up our man power, woman power
Money power, our all?
What is the democracy for which the world is battling
For which we offer up our man power, woman power
Money power, our all?
The world does not wait for such as these
Nor does liberty pause to heed the complaints of
Man or woman
She does not wait for those
Who have a special interest to serve
Nor a selfish reason for depriving other people of freedom
Holding her torch high
Lady Liberty points onward and upward says “America, come.”
(Holding her torch high... America!)
Holding her torch high
Lady Liberty points onward and upward says “America, come.”
Suffrage is coming -- you know it
Suffrage is coming -- you know it
Suffrage is coming -- you know it
Some of you are old I know
Are you willing that those who take your place might blame you for not keeping pace?
Is there any gain for you, or gain for the nation to delay?
Don’t drive us away, don’t wait, don’t wait, don’t wait, don’t wait
What is the democracy for which the world is battling
And for which we offer up our man power, woman power
Money power, our all?
