Woodstock

James Taylor

    Continues after the ad

    Well, 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 and roll band
    Got to get back to the land
    And set my soul free

    (Refrain)
    We are stardust
    We are golden
    We are billion-year-old carbon
    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

    Continues after the ad

    And maybe it's the time of year
    Yes, and maybe it's the time of man
    And I don't know who I am
    But life is for learning

    (Refrain twice)

    By the time we got to Woodstock
    We were half a million strong
    And everywhere was a song
    And a celebration

    And I dreamed I saw the bomber jet planes
    Riding shotgun in the sky
    Turning into butterflies
    Above our nation

    We are stardust
    We are golden
    We are caught in the devil's bargain
    And we got to get ourselves
    Back to the garden
