In the beginning


Back in nineteen fifty five
Man didn't know 'bout a rock 'n' roll show
'Nall that jive
White man had the schmaltz
Black man had the blues
No one knew what they was gonna do
But Tschaikovsky had the news
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
              A
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
business man got rich
And in every bar there was superstar
With a seven itch
There was fifteen million fingers
Learnin' how to play
And you could hear fingers pickin'
And this is what they had to say
Let there be light, sound, drums, guitar,
              A
Let there be rock

One night in a club called Shakin' Hand
There was a fourteen two decibel rockin' band
And the music was good
And the music was loud
And the singer turned and he said to the crowd
              A
Let there be rock
