Lyrics

I came upon a child of God He was walking along the road And I asked him, "Where are you going?" And this he told me "I'm going on down to Yasgur's farm I'm gonna join in a rock 'n' roll band I'm gonna camp out on the land I'm gonna try an' get 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" "Well, maybe it is just the time of year Or maybe it's the time of man I don't know who l am But you know, 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, 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 Billion year old carbon We are golden Caught in the devil's bargain And we've got to get ourselves Back to the garden
