Let There Be Rock

Lyrics

In the beginning
 Back in 1955
 Man didn't know 'bout a rock 'n' roll show
 And all that jive
 The white man had the schmaltz
 The black man had the blues
 No one knew what they 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 guitars
 And there was guitars
 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
 Guitar man got famous
 The businessman got rich
 And in every bar, there was a superstar
 With a seven-year itch
 There were 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
 Guitars, ow!
 Let there be rock
 ♪
 One night in the club called, "The Shakin' Hand"
 There was a 92-decibel rockin' band
 And the music was good and the music was loud
 And the singer turned 'round and he said to the crowd
 "Let there be rock..."
