We are women...They are men.
From creation it has been.
We are us and they are them.
That's God's equality.
We bleed blood and we feel pain.
We all splash mud in the rain.
The Good Lord loves us all the same.
That's God's equality.
If our eyes talk how can they see?
If feet do walk where hands should be
That's satan mocking you and me.
That's not equality.
We walk and talk and think and see.
Be all the Lord would have us be.
We take our part in harmony.
That's God's equality!
