- Let It Rock is een rock-'n-rollnummer van Chuck Berry uit 1960. Het nummer gaat over spoorwegwerkers. Aan het einde van de dag zijn ze aan het dobbelen, wanneer de projectleider ze waarschuwt dat er een trein aankomt. De tekst "Let it rock" komt niet in het lied voor, maar suggereert dat de trein rock-'n-roll vertegenwoordigt. Het onderwerp is erg opvallend, omdat Chuck Berry's publiek voornamelijk uit tieners bestond, en zijn nummers doorgaans gingen over dingen die hen aanspraken. (nl)

In a song review for AllMusic, critic Matthew Greenwald called it a "rock & roll masterpiece ... Utilizing the same geographic images as 'Roll Over Beethoven' and 'Johnny B Goode,' (among others), Chuck Berry creates an atmosphere that is definitive rock & roll poetry". (en)
