And I’m singing to you, you’re singing to me, you were out of the blue to a boy like me

79 Cents [D] - Eilen Jewell
D
Whether she's rich
Or toiling in a ditch
A
No matter the colour of her collar
G
The heart of your home
D
Works her fingers to the bone
A D
For 79 cents to your dollar
|[Chorus]
|D A
|79 cents, 79 cents, Woah, oh
|G D
|Hey hey, it’s al-right it's okay
|A D
|It's 79 cents to your dollar
D
But if her skin is brown
Her pay goes down
A
It’s a nickel to the white man's dime
G
But don't complain
D
Or they'll call you insane
A D
People call me "left-wing swine"
And don't forget
Mama gets less
It's the motherhood penalty
With a baby on her hip
Office phone against her lip
For a raise she’ll never see
"Love it or leave it"
Ad nauseam is repeated
With fevered regurgitation
It means "Bend over and take it
If you don’t like it fake it
For the sake of the male population"
|For the male population, the male population
|Woah, oh
|Hey hey, it's alright it's okay
|It's the great the male population
So ladies, think twice
If Uncle Sams seems nice
You say he doesn't mean it now
But Mr. Status Quo
Oh, don't you know
He's grabbing us right in the "meow"
