Give More Power To The People - The Chi-Lites

For God's sake

Give more power to the people

There's some people up there hoggin' everything

Tellin' lies givin' alibis about

The people's money and things

And if they gonna throw it away

Might as well give some to me

Yeah they seen and heard it but never had misery

There are some people who are starvin' to death

Never knew but only hate us

And they never had happiness

Oh oh oh if you don't have enough to eat

How can you think of love

You don't have the time to care

So it's crime you're guilty of

Oh

For God's sake

Give more power to the people

For God's sake

Give more power to the people

Cut this jive and see

Who's got the power to kill the most

My dull

When they run out of power

The world's gonna be a ghost

They know we're not satisfied

We living and holler

Makin' us a promise

And throwin' a few more dollars

There's no price for happiness

There's no price for love

Up goes the price of livin'

And you're right back where you was

So though whatever you got

Just be glad you got it

Now we're gonna get on up

And get some more of it

For God's sake

Give more power to the people

For God's sake

Give more power to the people

Oh yeah

Oh yeah

Oh yeah

God's sake

God's sake

Oh yeah

God's sake

God's sake

God's sake

God's sake

Oh yeah

God's sake

God's sake
