Lyrics

Woodstock
[©1969 Joni Mitchell]

I came upon a child of God
He was walking along the road
And I asked him, tell me where are you going
And this he told me
He said I'm going down to Yasgur's farm
I'm going to join in a rock 'n roll band
I'm going to get back to the land
Set my soul free
We are stardust
We are golden
We’re a billion year old carbon
And we’ve got to get ourselves
Back to the garden
Well 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’s 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
We’re a billion year old carbon
And we’ve got to get ourselves
Back to the garden
We are stardust We are golden
We are part of the devil's bargain
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 a celebration
And I dream’d I saw up above the jet planes
Riding shotgun in the sky
Turning into butterflies
Above our nation
