The Power

(album: Spirit In The Sky - 1969)

Sweetwater Johnny got no one to love him
Girlfriend told him she had enough of him
Sweetwater Johnny, love's gone sour
He lost the power

Sweetwater William, there he is smiling
Got a new girlfriend, said she'd stand by him
Sweetwater William, head's in a tower
He got the power

The power, the power, if you got the power
Girls either will or they won't
The power, the power, girl, the power
You either got it or you don't

Now listen, people
Yeah, I'm gonna tell you something about power

Sweetwater Jimmy, shy with the ladies
He's so bashful, he isn't ready
Sweetwater Jimmy, you need an hour
An hour to power

The power, the power, if you got the power
Girls either will or they won't
The power, the power, girl, the power
You either got it or you don't

Oh yeah
You either got it or you don't, no, no, no
