Well, I came upon a child of God.
He was walkin’ along the road,
And I asked him, “Tell me where are you going?”
This he told me.
Said, “I’m going down to Yasgur’s Farm,
Gonna join in a rock and roll band.
Got to get back to the land.
And set my soul free.”
CHORUS: We are stardust.
We are golden.
We are billion-year-old carbon,
And we got to get ourselves back to the garden.
VERSE: Well, then can I walk beside you?
I have come to lose the smog,
And I feel myself a cog
In somethin’ turnin’.
And maybe it’s the time of year,
Yes, and maybe it’s the time of Man,
And I don’t know who I am,
But life is for learning.
CHORUS: We are stardust.
We are golden.
We are billion-year-old carbon,
And we got to get ourselves
Back to the garden.

CHORUS
By the time we got to Woodstock,
We were a half a million strong,
And everywhere was a song
And a celebration.
And I dreamed I saw
The bomber death planes
Riding shotgun in the sky,
Turning into butterflies
Above our nation.
CHORUS: We are stardust.
We are golden.
We are caught in the Devil’s bargain
And we got to get ourselves
Back to the garden.
We are stardust.
We are golden.
We are billion-year-old carbon,
And we got to get ourselves
Back to the garden.
