Raw Power (Hippodrome Paris 1977) Songtext
von Iggy Pop

Will you please welcome
Iggy pop and his band

You gonna dance to the beat of the living dead
Lose sleep, baby, and stay away from bed
Raw power is sure to come a-running to you
If you′re alone and you got the shakes
So am I, baby, and I got what it takes
Raw power will surely come a-running to you

Raw power got a magic touch
Raw power is a much too much
Raw power is more than a soul
Got a son called rock and roll
Raw power honey just won't quit
Raw power I can feel it
Raw power honey it can′t be beat


Get down and kiss my feet
Everybody's always tryin' to tell me what to do
Don′t you try
Don′t you try to tell me what to do
Everybody's always tryin′ to tell me what to do
Don't you try to tell me what to-

You gotta look in the eye of the savage girl
Fall deep in love in the underworld
Raw power is sure to come a-runnin′ to you
If you're alone and you got the fear
So am I, baby, let′s get out of here
Raw power is sure to come a-runnin' to you

Raw power got a healing hand
Raw power can destroy a man
Raw power is so more than soul
It's got a son called rock and roll


Raw power, honey, just won′t quit
Raw power I can feel it
Raw power, honey, can′t be beat
Popping eyes and flashing feet
Everybody's always tryin′ to tell me what to do
Don't you try
Try to tell me what to do
Everybody′s always tryin' to tell me what to do, yeah
Don′t you try
Try to tell me what to do

Can you feel it?
Can you feel it?
Can you feel it?
Can you feel it?
Raw power!
Raw power!
Raw power!
Raw power!
