I came upon a child of God She was walking along the road And I asked her, \'Where are you going?\' This she told me
Said, I'm going on down to Yasgur's farm Gonna join a rock 'n' roll band I'm gonna camp out on the land Gonna try and set 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 turning Yeah, maybe it's just the time of year Or 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've got to get ourselves back to the garden
By the time we got to Woodstock We were half a million strong And everywhere was a song and celebration And I dreamed I saw the bombers Riding shotgun in the sky Turning into butterflies above our nation
We are stardust, we are golden (Billion year old carbon) And we've got to get ourselves back to the garden We are stardust, we are golden (Caught in the devil's bargain) And we've got to get ourselves back to the garden
