Woodstock Lyrics


I came upon a child of God
He was walking 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 'n' roll band
Got to get back to the land
And get my soul free
We are stardust
We're golden
And we got to get ourselves
Back to the garden
Can I walk along beside you
I have come here to lose the smog
And I feel like I'm a part of something
Turning round and round
And maybe it's the time of year

Maybe it's the time of man
And I don't know who I am
But life is for learning
We are stardust
We're 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
And everywhere was the song
And the celebration
And I dreamed I saw
The bomber jet planes fly
Fire a shot into the sky
Turning into butterflies
Above our nation
We are stardust
We're golden
And we've got to get ourselves
Back to the garden

Richard P. "Richie" Havens (born January 21, 1941; died April 22, 2013) was an American folk singer and guitarist. He is best remembered for his intense, rhythmic guitar style (often in open tunings), soulful covers of pop and folk songs, and his opening performance at the 1969 Woodstock Festival. Born in the Bedford-Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn, Havens moved to Greenwich Village in 1961 in time to get in on the folk boom then taking place.
