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, I'm going to join in a rock and roll band. I'm going to camp out on the land I'm going to try to get my soul free CHORUS: We are stardust, we are golden, And we got to get ourselves back to the garden. And can I walk beside you? I have come here to lose the smog, And I feel to be a cog in something turning. Or maybe it's 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 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. We are stardust, a billion year old carbon, We are golden caught in the devil's bargain And we got to get ourselves back to the garden.
