Following Sudan Archives’ body- and control-themed number, today’s song was written before the Roe v Wade reversal, but released in response, quietly powerful, bluesy protest by the American singer-songwriter backing pro-choice across a variety of situations. A portion of the proceeds from today’s single will go towards The Brigid Alliance, a referral-based service that provides travel, food, lodging, childcare and other logistical support for people seeking abortions. Out on ATO Records.

I pierce my ears and paint my nails
I wear my hair down in two pigtails
I make all my money raising my voice
It’s my body so it’s my choice
My friend Jim felt like Jane
So she changed her clothes and her name
She starts hormones on Monday, so I’m watching her boys
It’s her body so it’s her choice
Go on girl
Sweet, sweet Laura is just 19
When she finds out she’s pregnant during school orientation
Radio silence from the father
Laura says I’m not ready for a son or a daughter
Oh sweet Laura rejoice
It’s your body so it’s your choice
It’s okay girl
It’s your body so it’s your choice
