(Both:) Sisters, sisters
There were never such devoted sisters
Never had to have a chaperone, no sir
(Linda:) I'm here to keep my eye on her

(Both:) Caring, sharing
Every little thing that we are wearing
When a certain gentleman arrived from Rome
(Bette:) she wore the dress and I stayed home

(Both:) All kinds of weather, we stick together
The same in the rain or sun
Two different faces, but in tight places
We think and we act as one. Uh-huh!

Those who've seen us
Know that not a thing can come between us
Many men have tried to split us up, but no one can
Lord help the mister who comes between me and my sister
And Lord help the sister that comes between me and my man

All kinds of weather, we stick together
The same in the rain or sun
Two different faces, but in tight places
We think and we act as one. Uh-huh!

Those who've seen us
Know that not a thing could come between us
Many men have tried to split us up, but no one can
Lord help the mister who comes between me and my sister
And Lord help the sister who comes between me and my man

Sisters!
Sisters!
Sisters!
Don't you come
Between me and my man!

Bette Midler

Bette Midler is a Grammy-winning singer, songwriter, comedienne and actress. Named in honor of Bette Davis, Midler’s career began performing off-broadway until she developed the stage persona The Divine Miss M while singing at the world-famous Continental Baths gay bathhouse. A pre-fame Barry Manilow, the venue’s in-house piano player, produced her Grammy-nominated debut album which scored three US top 40 singles including the Grammy-nominated “Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy”. Midler took home the Best New Artist Grammy that year, her first of three career wins.

Throughout the 1970s, Midler found further success with music, Broadway, television and film. The Rose, Midler’s 1979 acting debut, earned her both Oscar and Academy Award nominations, and its namesake song won her a Golden Globe and another Grammy – also giving Midler her first success overseas.

The early 1980s proved less successful for Midler with four under-performing singles and a box office flop with the film Jinxed. However, the second half of the decade would prove far more fruitful with a handful of very successful films including Down and Out in Beverly Hills, Ruthless People, Outrageous Fortune and Beaches, the latter featuring a chart-topping cover of “Wind Beneath My Wings” that won Midler her third Grammy and is considered one of the greatest songs in American film history.
