CHUCK BERRY- Saint Louis, Missouri, 18 d'octubre de 1926 – Missouri, 18 de març 2017:

Just let me hear some of that rock and roll music
Any old way you choose it
It's got a back beat, you can't lose it
Any old time you use it
It's gotta be rock and roll music
If you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me

I've got no kick against modern jazz
Unless they try to play it too darn fast
And lose the beauty of the melody
Until they sound just like a symphony

That's why I go for that that rock and roll music
Any old way you choose it
It's got a back beat, you can't lose it
Any old time you use it
It's gotta be rock and roll music
If you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me

I took my loved one over across the tracks
So she can hear my man awail a sax
I must admit they have a rocking band
Man, they were blowing like a hurricane

That's why I go for that that rock and roll music
Any old way you choose it
It's got a back beat, you can't lose it
Any old time you use it
It's gotta be rock and roll music
If you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me

Way down South they had a jubilee
The jokey folks they had a jamboree
They're drinking home brew from a water cup
The folks dancing there are all shook up

And started playing that that rock and roll music
Any old time you use it
It's got a back beat, you can't lose it
Any old time you use it
It's gotta be rock and roll music
If you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me

Don't care to hear them play a tango
And In The Mood they take a mambo
It's way to early for a congo
So keep a rocking that piano

That's why I go for that that rock and roll music
Any old time you use it
It's got a back beat, you can't lose it
Any old time you use it
Gotta be rock and roll music
If you wanna dance with me
If you wanna dance with me




(ROCK' N ROLL MUSIC Chuck Berry, September 1957)





Sólo déjame escuchar algo de ese rock and roll
Tan viejo como lo elijas
Tiene un un ritmo que no podrás perder
Cuando quiera que lo elijas
Va a ser un rock and roll
Si tu bailas conmigo
Si tu bailas conmigo

Doy patadas al jazz morderno
A menos que intenten tocarlo demasiado rápido
Y cambiar la belleza de la melodía
Hasta que parezcan una sinfonía

Por eso voy a por ese rock and roll
Tan viejo como lo elijas
Tiene un un ritmo que no podrás perder
Cuando quiera que lo elijas
Va a ser un rock and roll
Si tu bailas conmigo
Si tu bailas conmigo

R.I.P. Chuck, long life Rock' N Roll!
