Let There Be Rock
In the beginning
Back in nineteen fifty five
Man didn't know 'bout a rock 'n' roll show
'N all that jive
The white man had the schmaltz
The black man had the blues
No one knew what they was gonna do
But Tschaikovsky had the news, he said
Let there be sound, and there was sound
Let there be light, and there was light
Let there be drums, there was drums
Let there be guitar, there was guitar, ah
Let there be rock
And it came to pass
That rock 'n' roll was born
All across the land every rockin' band
Was blowin' up a storm
And the guitar man got famous
The business man got rich
And in every bar there was a superstar
With a seven year itch
There was fifteen million fingers
Learnin' how to play
And you could hear the fingers pickin'
And this is what they had to say
Let there be light, sound, drums, 'n guitar, ah
Let there be rock
One night in a club called the Shakin' Hand
There was a 42 decibel rockin' band
And the music was good
And the music was loud
And the singer turned and he said to the crowd
Let there be rock
QUE HAJA ROCK
No início
Lá em 1955
O homem não conhecia um show de rock'n'roll
E todo aquele swing
O homem branco tinha a emoção
O homem negro tinha a melancolia
Ninguém sabia o que eles iriam fazer
Mas Tchaikovsky deu as notícias, ele disse
Que haja som, e houve som
Que haja luz, e houve luz
Que haja baterias, e houve baterias
Que haja guitarras, e houve guitarras
Que haja rock
E isto veio a acontecer
O rock'n'roll nasceu
Por toda parte cada banda de rock
Estava eclodindo uma tempestade
O homem de guitarras ficou famoso
O empresário ficou rico
E em cada bar havia um superstar
Com uma tremenda excitação
Havia quinze milhões de dedos
Aprendendo a tocar
E dava pra você ouvir os dedos dedilhando
E isso é o que eles tinham a dizer
Que haja luz, som, baterias, e guitarras, ah
Que haja rock
Uma noite em um clube chamado "Shakin' Hand"
Havia uma banda de rock tocando a quarenta e dois decibéis
E a música era boa
E a música era alta
E o vocalista virou-se e disse à multidão
Que haja rock
