about

Recorded Live @ Rockwood Music Hall Stage 3 in Manhattan, New York City on August 12, 2021.

lyrics

I saw you stumbling' through the door, cold and wet in the pouring rain
I covered you in a blanket, put a cup in your hand
You went to bed and you closed your eyes
That's when I knew that the time was near
I saved my people that night just like I had planned

They wrote a song about me, but one thing they got wrong
I knew how to save the world all along

Sisters do what you gotta do, what you gotta do what you gotta do
Sisters do what you gotta do, yeah
Sisters do what you gotta do, what you gotta do what you gotta do
Sisters do what you gotta do, yeah, yeah, yeah

You're so much more than a pretty face, you got em' eatin from the palm of your hand
You got the smarts and the hearts to bring em' all down
You got the goods and you got the grace, fire-filled with a match in hand
Burn the night with your light and spread it around and around
They wrote a song about me, and one thing that rings true
If I could do this, you could do it too

Sisters do what you gotta do, what you gotta do what you gotta do
Sisters do what you gotta do, yeah
Sisters do what you gotta do, what you gotta do what you gotta do
Sisters do what you gotta do, yeah, yeah, yeah
