Let There Be Rock - AC/DC

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 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

Oh, 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, guitar

Oh, 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"
