Power Company - Eric Burdon[00:00:00]
My daddy worked a lifetime yeah[00:00:22]
For the Power Company[00:00:25]
Turning night into day yeah[00:00:29]
Yeah for the Power Company[00:00:31]
You know that he can still recall when the company was god[00:00:36]
Man was a slave[00:00:40]
Throughout a war-torn strife[00:00:43]
My daddy held his lit electric light[00:00:45]
Power Company[00:00:48]
They told him 'join the union lad or we'll kick you in the a**'[00:00:51]
Power Company[00:00:55]
I grew up with these words printed on my back[00:00:58]
Power Company[00:01:03]
Whoa oh oh oh Power Company[00:01:06]
Whoa oh oh oh when will you be free[00:01:13]
I worked like a dog all day on the production line[00:01:24]
This factory is a jail every day of your life you know[00:01:31]
You're doing time[00:01:35]
Now I got a little car[00:01:38]
And I can't afford the gas[00:01:40]
The house is cold and draughty[00:01:42]
And the kids grow up too fast[00:01:44]
I walk around no future no past[00:01:45]
Power Company[00:01:49]
Whoa oh oh oh Power Company[00:01:53]
Whoa oh oh oh when will you be free[00:02:00]
Power Company[00:02:11]
Whoa oh oh oh when will you be free[00:02:15]
When will you be free[00:02:21]
How this world keeps on turning every day is a mystery[00:02:54]
My old man gets up each morning[00:03:01]
And he goes to work each day at the Power Company[00:03:04]
Yeah he still does his little job and it isn't very hard[00:03:08]
A computer to talk to instead of people he once knew[00:03:13]
And the bosses at the top[00:03:17]
They never seem to stop[00:03:19]
Power Company[00:03:20]
And we're singing[00:03:22]
Whoa oh oh oh Power Company[00:03:24]
Whoa oh oh oh when will you be free[00:03:31]
Whoa oh oh oh Power Company[00:03:38]
Whoa oh oh oh when will you be free[00:03:45]
Ask yourself a question and look around you[00:03:57]
