Lyrics Let There Be Rock - L.A. Guns

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..."
