Woodstock

I came upon a child of God

He was walking along the road

And I asked him, "Tell me where are you going?"

This he told me:

Said, "I'm going down to Yasgur's farm

Gonna join in a rock 'n' roll band

Got to get back to the land

And get my soul free"

We are stardust

We're golden

And we've got to get ourselves

Back to the garden

"Can I walk along beside you?

I have come here to lose the smog

And I feel like I'm a part

Of something turning round and round

And maybe it's the time of year

Maybe it's the time of man

And I don't know who I am

But life is for learning"

We are stardust

We're golden

And we've got to get ourselves

Back to the garden

By the time we got to Woodstock

We were half a million strong

And everywhere was the song

And the celebration

And I dreamed I saw the bomber jet planes

Fire shot into the sky

Turning into butterflies

Above our nation

We are stardust

We're golden

And we've got to get ourselves

Back to the garden
