245. “You Don’t Own Me” by Lesley Gore is considered the first feminist rock song. It was written by John Madara and David White and released in December 1963 a decade before Helen Reddy’s “I Am Woman”.
You don’t own me
I’m not just one of your many toys
You don’t own me
Don’t say I can’t go with other boys
And don't tell me what to do
Don't tell me what to say
And please, when I go out with you
Don't put me on display.
