woodstock

america

well i came upon a child of god

she was walking along the road

and i asked her tell where are you going

this she told me: she said

i'm going down to yasgur's farm

going to join in a rock and roll band. got to camp on to the land

and set my soul free. we are stardust

we are golden

and we got to get ourselves back to the garden. well

then can i walk beside you? i have come to lose the smog. and i feel myself a cog in something turning. and maybe it's the time of year

yes

said maybe it's the time of man. and i don't know who i am but life is for learning. we are stardust

we are golden

and we got to get ourselves back to the garden. by the time we got to woodstock

we were half a million strong

and everywhere was song and celebration. and i dreamed i saw the bomber riding shotgun in the sky

turning into butterflies above our nation. we are stardust

we are golden

and we got to get ourselves back to the garden.
