Lyrics

Sister Matilda is thinking about
Changing the color of her hair on a whim and a dare
Yeah she don't care
Sister Matilda, she don't care what you think
If the news is good or bad
Yeah she know's it won't change a dog gone thing
That's what she thinks
by suspicion, she is always working hard
Never in a hurry, she keeps her mind upon the stars
We are always in her thoughts and in her prayers

Sister Matilda knows that things will never change
But that don't stop her from working on the things she loves so much
When things get rough
Sister Matilda, she love's the work she does
But she never worries 'bout what tomorrow holds
She keeps goin' on

Surrounded by suspicion, she is always working hard
Never in a hurry, she keeps her mind upon the stars
We are always in her thoughts and in her prayers
Sister Matilda

Sister Matilda, she don't worry no more
She's been around the world once or twice or maybe even more
She's heard it all before
Sister Matilda, is thinking about changing the color of her hair
On a whim and a dare
Yeah she don't care

Surrounded by suspicion, she is always working hard
Never in a hurry, she keeps her mind upon the stars
We are always in her thoughts and in her prayers
Sister Matilda loves the work that she does
Yeah she don't ever worry about what tomorrow holds
We are always in her thoughts and in her prayers
Sister Matilda
