Lyrics
Standing up for justice while the men were sitting down
Alice Paul could ill afford to blend in with the crowd
She was not the first to bring attention to the cause
Standing up for justice challenging the laws
1917 and marching off to war
Alice Paul would simply ask equal rights for all
Armed with just a banner with a vision to promote
Standing up for justice and the right to vote
Presidential pardon refused
Maybe Woodrow Wilson should try walking in their shoes
Hauled off to jail six or seven times
It only made her stronger to the cause of woman kind
Right outside the White House they'd continue their crusade
Wilson hoped it'd all die down he sent them lemonade
1964 more legislative laws
Alice Paul was there again a credit to them all
A woman who kept fighting making women proud
Standing up for justice while the men were sitting down
