American blues musician and five-time Grammy Award winner Keb Mo' has the right idea about how to fix the world. And he's not alone. The Dalai Lama famously proclaimed, "The world will be saved by the western woman," and Pres. Barack Obama noted "We need more women in charge." Now you can sing along to that concept with Keb Mo.'

When I first glimpsed Roseanne Cash in the video I mistook her for Marianne Williamson.

Thanks to OEN member and author Mike Rivage-Seul for posting the link in a comment, and to Marta Steele for calling my attention to it! I love this song!

Put a Woman in Charge

Keb' Mo'

Featuring Rosanne Cash

Produced by Keb' Mo' & John Lewis Parker

Album: Oklahoma

In the beginning of time

Man made the fire then the wheel

Went from a horse to an automobile

He said, "the world is mine"
