(Verse 1)
Before the lights and fame, before the crowds would roar,
There stood the fierce and fearless, opening every door.
Brenda’s voice, a fire blazing small but bold and bright,
Wanda’s wild guitar strum shook the silent night.
(Verse 2)
Big Mama’s blues rolled deep with power and soul,
Sister Rosetta’s gospel fire, a trail to rock ’n’ roll.
Little Richard’s wild piano, energy untamed,
Chuck Berry’s guitar riffs, forever engraved.
(Chorus)
They rocked the shadows, broke the silence wide,
With voices strong and hearts on fire, full of pride.
From Black and white, male and female bold,
Their thunder echoes, still so loud and gold.
We sing their names, legends brave and true,
The voices that gave birth to something new.
(Verse 3)
James Brown’s funk explosion, the Godfather’s groove,
Sam Cooke’s silky voice, making hearts move.
Fats Domino’s piano dancing through the night,
The roots of rock shining bright in every light.
(Bridge)
From smoky clubs to the radio waves,
Their spirit lives on, inspiring waves.
No more forgotten, their stories unfold,
A vibrant legacy, fearless and bold.
(Chorus)
They rocked the shadows, broke the silence wide,
With voices strong and hearts on fire, full of pride.
From Black and white, male and female bold,
Their thunder echoes, still so loud and gold.
We sing their names, legends brave and true,
The voices that gave birth to something new.
(Outro)
So here’s to the legends, both queens and kings,
Who changed the world and taught us to sing.
Their music’s heartbeat forever rolls,
The timeless soul of rock ’n’ roll.
