Power House

[Verse 1] You would wake up in the morning Put your eye makeup on And you'd make your way downstairs And put your records on You would play your music so loud We'd be upstairs asleep The music would empower you To make you strong to get through the week You would wear the music like armour For the daily fight And protect Beulah from prejudice You would fight for her rights You were no support to no one And you never gave up Even in those hard times You showed us how music could give us love [Chorus] Oh mother You're a powerhouse Oh mother You're a powerhouse Oh mother You're a powerhouse Oh mother You're a powerhouse [Verse 2] I watched how music moved you It was a big part of your life I knew music was my way out A place to learn, understand my life I wanna thank you mum for the gift you gave I know you know what I'm talking about You, me and Beulah We've got our music and you're our powerhouse [Chorus] Oh mother You're a powerhouse Oh mother You're a powerhouse Oh mother You're a powerhouse Oh mother You're a powerhouse
