Rainbow

Everybodys sayin that the times are getting rough
You gotta stay loose baby and you gotta be tough...oh
I get knocked down...get right back up again
Cause I never give up and I never give in...
Oh - so strong
Got the power when I turn it on
Yeah - Im gonna get my fill
Nothins gonna stop me now and nothin ever will
I got the...power
I got the power
I feel the power...
And dont forget it
Make some, break some aint no big surprise
Theyre gonna wheel ya, deal ya, tell ya all the lies...(realize)
But Im a hot shot, shoot em down let me be (thats me)
Cause I got nothin for nothin and nothins ever free...no
Oh - so strong
All I gotta do is turn it on
Yeah - Im gonna get my fill
Nothins gonna stop me now and nothin ever will
I got the power
Oh, I got the power
I can feel the power
I got the power
Yeah yeah yeah...turn it on
I can take anything that gets in my way
I dont worry bout tomorrow I just live for today...
Oh - so strong
Got that feeling when I turn it on
Yeah - Im gonna get my fill
Nothins gonna stop me now and nothin ever will
I got the power
