Hell No!
All my life I've had to fight
I had to fight my daddy
I had to fight my brothers
My cousins, my uncles too
But I never, never, never, never, never, never thought
I'd have to fight in my own house
I feel sorry for you, to tell you the truth
You remind me of my mama
Under your husband's thumb, no
You under your husband's foot
What he say, go
Why you so scared? I never know
But if a man raise his hand
Hell no (hell, hell, hell no)
Hell no (hell, hell, hell no)
Girl child ain't safe in a family of mens, uh
Sick and tired old woman, still live like a slave
Oh, you better learn how to fight back while you still alive
You show them girls can beat back that jive
'Cause when a man just don't give a damn
Hell no (hell, hell, hell no)
Hell no (hell, hell, hell no)
No, no, no, no (hell, hell, hell no)
Hell no (hell, hell, hell no)
Oh, oh
When that man used to touch me
He'd climb on top and start to rock me away
Lord knows I still love him
But he tried to make me mind
And I just ain't that kind
Hell no (hell, hell, hell no)
Don't be no fool, don't waste your time (hell, hell, hell no)
Any man that hurt you ain't worth a dime (hell, hell, hell no)
No, no, no, you're too good for that man (hell, hell, hell no)
Hell no
Oh, you got to say
You need to say
You better say
You oughta say
(Hell) hell, hell, hell, hell, hell
Hell no
I had to fight my daddy
I had to fight my brothers
My cousins, my uncles too
But I never, never, never, never, never, never thought
I'd have to fight in my own house
I feel sorry for you, to tell you the truth
You remind me of my mama
Under your husband's thumb, no
You under your husband's foot
What he say, go
Why you so scared? I never know
But if a man raise his hand
Hell no (hell, hell, hell no)
Hell no (hell, hell, hell no)
Girl child ain't safe in a family of mens, uh
Sick and tired old woman, still live like a slave
Oh, you better learn how to fight back while you still alive
You show them girls can beat back that jive
'Cause when a man just don't give a damn
Hell no (hell, hell, hell no)
Hell no (hell, hell, hell no)
No, no, no, no (hell, hell, hell no)
Hell no (hell, hell, hell no)
Oh, oh
When that man used to touch me
He'd climb on top and start to rock me away
Lord knows I still love him

And I just ain't that kind
Hell no (hell, hell, hell no)
Don't be no fool, don't waste your time (hell, hell, hell no)
Any man that hurt you ain't worth a dime (hell, hell, hell no)
No, no, no, you're too good for that man (hell, hell, hell no)
Hell no
Oh, you got to say
You need to say
You better say
You oughta say
(Hell) hell, hell, hell, hell, hell
Hell no
