Woodstock
(Joni Mitchell)

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 going to join in a rock 'n' roll band
I'm going to camp out on the land
And try and get my soul free
Chorus:
We are stardust
We are golden
And we have got to get ourselves
Back to the garden
Then can I walk beside you
I have come 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 I am
But life is for learning
Repeat chorus
By the time we got to Woodstock
We were half a million strong
And everywhere there was song and celebration
Singing and dancing
And I dreamed I was the bombers
Riding shotgun in the sky
And they were turning into b***erflies
Above our nation
Repeat chorus
We are stardust
We are million year old carbon
We are golden
And we are caught in the devil's bargain
And we've got to get ourselves
Back to the garden
