Titled "Woodstock", written and originally performed by Joni Mitchell, covered by Matthews Southern Comfort and probably a few million others

Joni Mitchell recorded this song : "Woodstock" on her 3rd album "Ladies of the Canyon" in '70/71. There's a nice cover version by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young from around the same time - and it's been covered regularly ever since. But not by my band: musicisgod

Yep it is Woodstock by Joni Mitchell
In the US it was a hit for Crosby Stills Nash and Young
In the UK it was a hit for Matthews Southern Comfort - that's my favourite of the 3 versions.

Joni Mitchell Woodstock Lyrics
(Joni Mitchell)
I came upon a child of God
walking down the road
I asked him, where are you going?
And this he told me
He said I'm going down to Yasgur's Farm,
Just join in a rock and roll band.
Get back to the land and set my soul free.
(He said) we are stardust, we are golden,
And we got to get ourselves back to the garden.
So can I walk beside you?
I've come here to lose the smog,
I feel like I'm a cog in something turning round and round.
Maybe it's just the time of year,
Maybe it's the time of man.
I don't know who I am,
But life is for learning.
(And then)we are stardust, we are golden,
And we got to get ourselves back to the garden.
We are stardust, we are golden,
And we got to get ourselves back to the garden.
By the time we got to Woodstock,
We were half a million strong
Everywhere you look there was a song and hope and a celebration.
And I dreamed I saw the bomber death planes
Riding shotgun in the sky,
Turning into butterflies
Above our nation.
We are stardust, we are golden,
And we got to get ourselves back to the garden.
We are stardust,we are a billion year old carbon,
we are golden
We just got caught up in some devil's bargain
And we got to get ourselves back to the garden.
To some semblance of a garden.
