Marie Equi (feat. Kimsmyth)

lyrics

G
Marie Equi quit the mill for anarchy
C G
Chasing love across the whole country
C
She stood so firmly for peace
Em G
That she was clubbed by the police
D G
Ain't it funny how that history repeats?
C G C D
Try to be free from sea to shining sea

Dr. Equi had her name printed in the streets
Saying money is a detestable thing
I'll speak when and where I please, no man will stop me, do instead they called her dangerously insane

Try to be free
From sea to shining sea
Cause a sensational ruckus
Trust your heart to know what love is
Sings the song that tells about Marie Equi

1905 in Portland Oregon
Marie Equi practiced medicine
Providing birth control although it was illegal
We were taught to know our bodies is a sin

Try to be free
From sea to shining sea
Be brave enough to take the lead to make the happiness you seek
Sings the song that tells about Marie Equi
