Let There be Rock

Que Haja Rock

Let There be Rock

No começoIn the beginning
Lá em mil novecentos e cinquenta e cincoBack in nineteen fifty five
O homem não sabia nada sobre um show de rock 'n' rollMan didn't know 'bout a rock 'n' roll show
E toda aquela onda'N all that jive
O homem branco tinha o sentimentalismoThe white man had the schmaltz
O homem negro tinha o bluesThe black man had the blues
Ninguém sabia o que iam fazerNo one knew what they was gonna do
Mas Tchaikovsky tinha a notícia, ele disseBut Tschaikovsky had the news, he said

Que haja som, e houve somLet there be sound, and there was sound
Que haja luz, e houve luzLet there be light, and there was light
Que haja bateria, houve bateriaLet there be drums, there was drums
Que haja guitarra, houve guitarra, ahLet there be guitar, there was guitar, ah
Que haja rockLet there be rock

E aconteceuAnd it came to pass
Que o rock 'n' roll nasceuThat rock 'n' roll was born
Por toda a terra, cada banda de rockAll across the land every rockin' band
Estava fazendo um barulho danadoWas blowin' up a storm
E o cara da guitarra ficou famosoAnd the guitar man got famous
O empresário ficou ricoThe business man got rich
E em cada bar havia uma superestrelaAnd in every bar there was a superstar
Com uma coceira de sete anosWith a seven year itch
Havia quinze milhões de dedosThere was fifteen million fingers
Aprendendo a tocarLearnin' how to play
E você podia ouvir os dedos dedilhandoAnd you could hear the fingers pickin'
E isso é o que eles tinham a dizerAnd this is what they had to say

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

Uma noite em um clube chamado Shakin' HandOne night in a club called the Shakin' Hand
Havia uma banda de rock de 42 decibéisThere was a 42 decibel rockin' band
E a música era boaAnd the music was good
E a música era altaAnd the music was loud
E o cantor se virou e disse para a multidãoAnd the singer turned and he said to the crowd

Que haja rockLet there be rock
