Woodstock (2021 Remaster)

[Verse 1]

I came upon a child of God

He was walking along the road

And I asked him, "Where are you going?"

And this he told me

I'm going on down to Yasgur's Farm

I'm gonna join in a rock and roll band

I'm gonna camp out on the land

I'm gonna try and get my soul free

[Chorus]

We are stardust

We are golden

And we've got to get ourselves back to the garden

[Verse 2]

Then can I walk beside you?

I have come here to lose the smog

And I feel to be a cog in something turning

Well maybe it is just the time of year

Or maybe it's the time of man

I don't know who I am

But you know life is for learning

[Chorus]

We are stardust

We are golden

And we've got to get ourselves back to the garden

[Bridge]

By the time we got to Woodstock

We were half a million strong

And everywhere there was song and celebration

And I dreamed I saw the bombers

Riding shotgun in the sky

And they were turning into butterflies

Above our nation

[Chorus]

We are stardust

Billion year old carbon

We are golden

Caught in the devil's bargain

And we've got to get ourselves back to the garden

(To some semblance of a garden.)
