[Verse 1]
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
I'm going to try an' get my soul free

[Chorus]
We are stardust
We are golden
And we've got to get ourselves
Back to the garden

[Verse 2]
Then can I walk beside you
I have come here 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 you know life is for learning

[Chorus]
Oh, we are stardust
We are golden
And we've got to get ourselves
Back to the garden
[Bridge]
By the time we got to Woodstock
We were half a million strong
And everywhere there was song and celebration
And I dreamed I saw the bombers
Riding shotgun in the sky
And they were turning into butterflies
Above our nation

[Chorus]
We are stardust (billion year old carbon)
We are golden (caught in the devil's bargain)
And we've got to get ourselves
Back to the garden

[Outro]
Ooh, ooh, ooh...
Hmm...
