Woodstock

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 goin' on down to Yasgur's farm
Gonna join in a rock 'n' roll band
I'm gonna camp out on the land
Gonna get my soul free"

We are stardust
We are golden
And we've got to get ourselves
Back to the garden

Then, can I walk beside you?
I have come here to lose the smog
And I feel to be a cog in something's turning
And maybe it is just the time of year
Or maybe it's the time of man
I don't know who I am
But I know that life is for learning

We are stardust
We are 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 there was song and celebration
And I dreamed I saw the bombers
Riding shotgun in the sky
And they were turnin' into butterflies
Above our nation

We are stardust
Million-year-old carbon
We are golden
Caught in the devil's bargain
And we've got to get ourselves
Back to the garden
