WOODSTOCK - CSNY (1970)

Sorry it's been a while...here's WOODSTOCK 1970...we need another one <3

"We are stardust, we are golden, we are billion year old carbon,

And we got to get ourselves back to the garden.

By 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 planes riding shotgun in the sky,

Turning into butterflies above our nation.

We are stardust, we are golden, we are caught in the devil's bargain,

And we got to get ourselves back to the garden..."

Song of the Day - Going Going Gone (Garcia Version)

"I've just reached a place 

Where the willow don't bend

There's not much more to be said 

It's the top of the end

I am going 

I am going 

I am gone..."

Song of the Day - Speak to Me/Breath (1973)

Breathe, breathe in the air

Don't be afraid to care

Leave but don't leave me

Look around and choose your own ground

For long you live and high you fly

And smiles you'll give and tears you'll cry

And all you touch and all you see

Is all your life will ever be

Run, rabbit, run

Dig that hole, forget the sun,

And when at last the work is done

Don't sit down, it's time to dig another one

For long you live and high you fly

But only if you ride the tide

And balanced on the biggest wave

You race toward an early grave...

I been living on the edge

Now I've just got to go 

Before I get to the ledge

So I am going

I am gone..."

Song of the Day - Morning Dew (1974)

"Where have all the people gone my honey,

Where have all the people gone today.

There's no need for you to be worrying about all those people,

You never see those people anyway..."
