[Verse 1]
C Dm
I could raise the crops from the earth
Dm
I could raise my children from birth
G F
But when I'm looking for work
G Dm
They say that job ain't for her
G Dm
I could be a good mans wife
Dm
I could give a new child life
G F G
But when I fight for my rights
D
They say no woman, no cry
[Pre-Chorus]
G
But I ain't giving up
C Bb
I can't count on luck
[Chorus]
Dm
I get my hands dirty
Dm
I show up so early
F G
They show me no mercy
Am Dm
So I just keep working
C Dm
Maybe God could save me
Or my boss might pay me
C G
Right now no one serves me
Am Dm
Maybe their hands are dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty
C# Am
[Verse 2]
Dm
I could lead impossible missions
Dm
I could occupy the highest position
C F
But when I ask them to listen
G Dm G
They disregard my opinion
Dm
Well, I ain't askin' no more
Dm
I will command the floor
C F
I'm breaking every glass ceiling
G Dm
I'm building sky scraping buildings
[Pre-Chorus]
G
When that next storm comes
C Bb
I'll do what I've always done
[Chorus]
C Dm
I get my hands dirty
I show up so early
G
They show me no mercy
Am Dm F
So I just keep working
G F Dm
Maybe God could save me
Dm
Or my boss might pay me
G
Am I so unworthy?
Am Dm
Or are their hands just dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty?
C# C
Dm C Dm G Am Dm G
Dm F Dm G AM Dm
[Bridge]
Dm Bb C Dm
And I have seen the other side of the mountain
Bb C Dm F Dm
Where every queen will be afforded her throne
Bb C
And I will stand beside my sisters
Dm
And all persistent resistors
Bb
They'll say I knew it would come true
C
And I'll say 'darling, me too'
[Chorus]
C# C Dm
I get my hands dirty
G C#
I show up so early
Dm C
They show me no mercy
F C Dm
So I just keep working
Dm
Maybe God could save me
Dm
Or my boss might pay me
Dm G
Right now no one serves me
Am Dm
Maybe their hands are dirty, dirty, dirty, dirty?
Dm
I get my hands dirty
Dm
I show up so early
C G
They show me no mercy
Am Dm
So I just keep working
G F Dm
Maybe God could save me
Dm
Or my boss might pay me
F G
Am I so unworthy?
Am C C#
Or are their hands just dirty, dirty, dirty?
