What is the democracy for which the world is battling for?
Which we offer up our man power, woman power
Money power, our all

What is the democracy for which the world is battling for?
Which we offer up our man power, woman power
Money power, our all

The world does not wait for such as these
Nor does liberty pause to heed the complaints of man or woman
She does not wait for those who have a special interest to serve
Nor a selfish reason for depriving other people of freedom
(Freedom, freedom, freedom)

Holding her torch high, Lady Liberty points onward, upward says "America, come"
(Holding her torch high, America)
Holding her torch high, Lady Liberty points onward, upward says "America, come"

Suffrage is coming, you know it
Suffrage is coming, you know it
Suffrage is coming, you know it

Some of you are old, I know
Are you willing that those who take your place
Might blame you for not keeping pace?
Is there any gain for you or gain for the nation to delay?
Don't drive us away (don't wait, don't wait, don't wait, don't wait)

What is the democracy for which the world is battling for?
Which we offer up our man power, woman power
Money power, our all
