I came upon a child of God
He was walking along the road
I asked him, where are you going?
And this he told me
I'm going down to Yasgur's Farm,
Gonna join in a rock and roll band.
Get camp out on the land and get my soul free.
We are stardust, we are golden,
And we got to get ourselves back to the ga---aa--aa------ar-den.
So can I walk beside you?
I've come here to lose the smog,
I feel to be a cog in something turning.
Maybe it's just the time of year,
Maybe it's the time of man.
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 ga---aa--aa------ar-den.
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,
Turning into butterflies
Above our nation.
We are stardust, billion year old carbon,
we are golden
Caught in a devils bargain
And we got to get ourselves back to the ga---aa--aa------ar-den.
