Square Deal
When we have the vote what will Negro women do?
We'll help our communities, same as you
Standing ready for the ballot, and the problems it will heal
We are only asking for a Square Deal
Square deal... square deal. Square deal... square deal
It is not too much to ask, it's how we feel
Square deal... square deal
Square deal
We are only asking for a square deal... square deal
Our men gave their lives, on battlefields they lay
Our women kept the home fires and for our country prayed
We bought bonds and gave money and in our churches kneeled.
Now we're only asking for a square deal
Square deal... square deal Square deal... square deal
It is not too much to ask, it's how we feel
Square deal... square deal
Square deal
We are only asking for a square deal... square deal
This is the age of women, time to recognize our worth
We don't ask for gifts, just equal pay for equal worth
Lifting as we climb we're united in our zeal
Now we're only asking for a square deal
Square deal... square deal Square deal... square deal
It is not too much to ask, it's how we feel
Square deal... square deal
Square deal
We are only asking for a square deal... square deal
We are only asking for a square deal... square deal
We'll help our communities, same as you
Standing ready for the ballot, and the problems it will heal
We are only asking for a Square Deal
Square deal... square deal. Square deal... square deal
It is not too much to ask, it's how we feel
Square deal... square deal
Square deal
We are only asking for a square deal... square deal
Our men gave their lives, on battlefields they lay
Our women kept the home fires and for our country prayed
We bought bonds and gave money and in our churches kneeled.
Now we're only asking for a square deal
Square deal... square deal Square deal... square deal
It is not too much to ask, it's how we feel
Square deal... square deal
Square deal
We are only asking for a square deal... square deal
This is the age of women, time to recognize our worth
We don't ask for gifts, just equal pay for equal worth
Lifting as we climb we're united in our zeal
Now we're only asking for a square deal
Square deal... square deal Square deal... square deal
It is not too much to ask, it's how we feel
Square deal... square deal
Square deal
We are only asking for a square deal... square deal
We are only asking for a square deal... square deal
