Détroit - Let There Be Rock Lyrics




In the beginning
Back in nineteen fifty-five
Man didn't know about 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 was gonna do
But Tchaikovsky had the news
He said

Let there be sound
There was sound
Let there be light
There was light
Let there be drums
There was drums
Let there be guitar
There was guitar
Oh, let there be rock

And it came to pass
That rock 'n' roll was born
All across the land every rockin' band
Was blowing up a storm
And the guitar man got famous
The businessman got rich
And in every bar there was a super star
With a seven year itch
There were fifteen million fingers
Learning how to play
And you could hear the fingers picking
And this is what they had to say

Let there be light
There was light
Let there be sound
There was sound
Let there be drums
There was drums
Let there be guitar
There was guitar
Oh, let there be rock

One night in a club called The Shaking Hand
There was a ninety-two decibel rocking 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
Let there be rock
Let there be rock
Let there be rock
