Well, I came upon a child of God
He was walking along the road
And I asked him, tell where are you going?
This he told meSaid, 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 freeWe are stardust, we are golden
We are billion year old carbon
And we got to get ourselves back to the gardenWell, then can I walk beside you?
I have come to lose the smog
And I feel myself a cog in somethin' turning
And maybe it's the time of yearBut then maybe it's the time of man
And I don't know who I am
But life is for learningWe are stardust, we are golden
We are billion year old carbon
And we got to get ourselves back to the gardenWe are stardust, we are golden
We are billion year old carbon
And we got to get ourselves back to the gardenBy the time we got to Woodstock
We were half a million strong
And everywhere was a song and a celebration
And I dreamed I saw the bomber jet planesRiding shotgun in the sky
Turning into butterflies
Above our nationWe are stardust, we are golden
We are caught in the devils bargain
And we got to get ourselves back to the garden
