Charlie
drives a
brand new Mercedes Benz
He's got another one just like it
Just like all his friends
His wife is playing tennis
And his kids arrive at school
He drives home to his empty house
Sits by his empty swimming pool
But he's got power windows
He's got power brakes,
he's got a power bed,
push a button and it shakes
He's got no one to talk to
and tears are rolling down his face
He ain't got the power
of love
Louis drives a beat -up 69
Dodd and swears it's the Statue of Mary
that keeps it from falling apart
With Gracie right beside him,
sitting closer in a smile
Her head upon his shoulder,
he loves to drive and hold her
He's got no power windows,
got no power brakes
He ain't got no power, nothing,
but he's got what it takes
He's got grace, he's arms around him
and a smile on his face
He's got the power of love
No air conditioner, no cellular telephone
He goes a -rumblin' down
the highway,
listenin' to his AM radio
One arm out the window
and a smile upon his face
It makes you wonder how it got there
Do you see him look at the race?
See him look at the race
No air conditioning, no cellular telephone
He goes a -rumblin' down
the highway
listenin' to his AM radio
With one arm out the window
and a smile upon his face
It makes you wonder how it got there
Do you see him look at Grace?
Boy, he's got no power windows,
got no power brakes
He ain't got no power nothin'
but he's got what it takes
He's got Gracie's arms around him
and a smile on his face
He's got the power
of love
Power of love
Ooh, ain't that the power
Power of love you
