Let There Be Rock

Let There Be Rock

Let There Be Rock

No início
In the beginning
De volta em mil novecentos e cinquenta e cinco
Back in nineteen fifty five
O homem não sabia sobre um show de rock 'n' roll
Man didn't know 'bout a rock 'n' roll show
'N tudo o que jive
'N all that jive
O homem branco tinha o schmaltz
The white man had the schmaltz
O homem negro tinha o blues
The black man had the blues
Ninguém sabia o que eles iam fazer
No one knew what they was gonna do
Mas Tschaikovsky teve a notícia, ele disse
But Tschaikovsky had the news, he said

Deixe lá seja som, e havia som
Let there be sound, and there was sound
Haja luz, e houve luz
Let there be light, and there was light
Que haja tambores, havia tambores
Let there be drums, there was drums
Que haja guitarra, tem guitarra, ah
Let there be guitar, there was guitar, ah
Que haja rock
Let there be rock

E aconteceu
And it came to pass
Esse rock 'n' roll nasceu
That rock 'n' roll was born
Por toda a terra toda banda de rock
All across the land every rockin' band
Estava soprando uma tempestade
Was blowin' up a storm
E o guitarrista ficou famoso
And the guitar man got famous
O homem de negócios ficou rico
The business man got rich
E em todo bar havia um superstar
And in every bar there was a superstar
Com uma coceira de sete anos
With a seven year itch
Havia quinze milhões de dedos
There was fifteen million fingers
Aprendendo como jogar
Learnin' how to play
E você pode ouvir os dedos pegando
And you could hear the fingers pickin'
E isso é o que eles tinham a dizer
And this is what they had to say

Que haja luz, som, bateria, guitarra, ah
Let there be light, sound, drums, 'n guitar, ah
Que haja rock
Let there be rock

Uma noite em um clube chamado The Shakin 'Hand
One night in a club called The Shakin' Hand
Havia uma banda de rock de 42 decibéis
There was a 42 decibel rockin' band
E a musica foi boa
And the music was good
E a musica era alta
And the music was loud
E o cantor se virou e ele disse para a multidão
And the singer turned and he said to the crowd
Que haja rock
Let there be rock
