Skip MySQL password

Question

I am executing this command-

mysql -u user1 -p password1 -e "show databases"

and I expect to run the mysql "show databases" command successfully. But It's not happening that way. It's asking for password again, even though I've entered the correct password. This is what I get-

Enter password:

How can I get rid of this prompt where it asks for password even though I've given in my command?
