Power to the people, right on
Say you want a revolution
we better get on right away
well let’s get on your feet
and on the street
Singing power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people right on
A million workers working for nothing
you better give them what they really own
we got to put you down
when we come into town
Singing power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people right on
I’m gonna ask you comrades and brothers
how do you treat your own woman back home
she’s got to free herself
so she can give us help
Singing power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people right on
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people
Power to the people right on
Pesem je napisal John Lennon, glasba pa je delo John Lennon/Plastic Ono Banda. Izdana je bila kot singel leta 1971.
“Power to the People” je bila popularna fraza v 60ih in zgodnjih 70ih. Pomenila je potrebo posameznikov, da vzamejo nazdor vladam in institucijam, kar je nekaj, za kar se je zavzemal tudi Lennon. Napisana je bila z namenom da bi jo ljudje peli in da bi jih opolnomočila.
