It has a strong feminist message. The song has been performed by numerous classic female blues singers, including Bessie Smith. Later renditions include those by Francine Reed, Barbara Dane, Nancy Harrow, Sue Keller, as well as Cass Elliot with The Big 3. Some male performers, as Lyle Lovett, Clarke Peters and Dennis Rowland and groups such as San Francisco Gay Men's Chorus, Saffire, and the Vipers also recorded the tune.
