Power To the People Lyrics


We want the power for the people
That's all we ask in our country dear
The sick and the hungry are unable
Protect them and those who may live in fearWe as the young wish to say in this song
God bless great America
We give thanks to the old for acheiving their goal
It is now up to us and we know we must build up a trustAnd we want the power for the people
That's all we ask in our country dear
The sick and the hungry are unable
Protect them and those who may live in fearPower for the people
Power for the people
Power for the peopleHardening crimes is a part of the times nd it's rough for some people to live
Disease can move fast but it don't have to last
It is now the nation's turn for all to be concerned
We can be freer still, it is the people's willAnd bring back the power for the people
That's all we ask in our country dear
The sick and the hungry are unable
Protect them and those who may live in fearPower for the people

Power for the people
Power for the people
Power for the people
Power for the people
Power

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Curtis Mayfield (June 3, 1942 – December 26, 1999) was an American soul, funk and rhythm and blues, singer-songwriter and guitarist from Chicago, Illinois. Mayfield is probably best known for his anthemic music with The Impressions and for the soundtrack to the blaxploitation film Superfly. Perhaps because he didn't cross over to the pop audience as heavily as Motown's stars, it may be that the scope of Curtis Mayfield's talents and contributions have yet to be fully recognized. Judged merely by his records alone, the man's legacy is enormous.
