"Power To The People" lyrics

"Power To The People"

Young man (Young man)
Keep your head up (Gotta keep your head up)
You work hard (You work long)
Against the system
Just to get your bread up
(Just to get your bread up)

You know the rules are set
The cards are dealt
And sometimes they feel like the wrong ones
They keep us all in debt, to make us sick
But you gotta keep holdin' on
You know we must trust our people
Give more power to the people

Young lady, young lady
We gotta keep on fightin', oh, baby
(Gotta keep on fightin')
Because you are our tomorrow
Keep the strength to carry on

You know some people tried on the sly
To take away your rights
But we must stand together
Through the darkness or the light
You know we must trust our ladies
Give more power to the ladies
Ooh, oh, baby

No more tear drops, no more pain
Every human's all the same
No more tear drops, no more pain
Together we can stand the rain
No more tear drops, no more pain
Every human's all the same
No more tear drops, no more pain
Together we can stand the rain

Oh, baby
Oh, sugar
