197. “Hen In The Foxhouse” is a type of feminine manifesto that was written and performed by Rhiannon Giddens. The song is a call for women to take charge of their lives, “I’m just a hen in the fox house … A pigeon set amongst the cats…A sheep in wolf’s clothing …I’m a woman in man’s world, and there ain’t no changing that / And boys, they will be boys, fighting over every cat / They jockey for position, stand head-to-head each day / But I really don’t care how big it is / Long as you keep it out of my way”
