. I came upon a child of God Walking along the road I asked him where are you going And this he told me I'm going on down to Yasgur's farm To join in a rock 'n' roll band To get back to the land And try and get my soul free We are stardust We are golden And we've got to get ourselves Back to the garden Well can I walk beside you I come here to lose the smog feel like I'm a cog In something turning round and round Maybe it's just the time of year Maybe it's the time of man I don't know who l 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 Everywhere you looked there was song and hope 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 We are golden And we've got to get ourselves Back to the garden
