We showed the world that women could fight
And we rose and won with women’s might
Chorus:
Hail the waistmakers of nineteen nine
Making their stand on the picket line
Breaking the power of those who reign
Pointing the way, smashing the chain
And we gave new courage to the men
Who carried on in nineteen ten
And shoulder to shoulder we’ll win through
