Matthews Southern Comfort

Songtekst

I came upon a child of God, he was walking along the road
When I asked him 'where are you going', this he told me
I'm going down to Yasgur*s farm
Think I'll join a rock and roll band
I'll camp out on the land and try to set my soul free

We are stardust, we are golden
And we've got to get ourselves back to the garden

Then can I walk beside you, I have come here to lose the smog
And I feel just like a cog in somethin' turnin'
Well, maybe it's the time of year or maybe it's the time of man
And I don't know who I am but life's for learnin'

We are stardust, we are golden
And we've got to get ourselves back to the garden

By the time I got to Woodstock there were half a million strong
Ev'rywhere there was songs and celebration
And I dreamed I saw the bombers riding shotgun in the sky
Turning into butterfly above our nation

We are stardust, we are golden
And we've got to get ourselves back to the garden

We are stardust, we are golden ....
