Well, I have to tell about some folks today
|
Who got together from across the USA
|
Oh, they took their cars, their girls, their wives
|
In their hands now they took their lives
|
The spirit of Woodstock remains in America today
|
|
Well, they slept in bags on the grassy slopes of the highway
|
And they were almost overcome by the traffic in the heat of the byway
|
Well, now they ate their food from a little tin can
|
'Cause they didn't have any pots and pans
|
The spirit of Woodstock remains in America today
|
|
Well I left my job and I began my journey
|
I don't care what troubles this may bring
|
I did my thing!
|
Well, I was there so I know what I'm talking about
|
When the music began you should have heard them holler and shout
|
But then they sat in the mud, right next to each other
|
Showing lots of love, like they're sisters and brothers
|
The spirit of Woodstock remains in America today
|
|
When I was driving there it seems that every single rock 'n' roll station
|
Had a talking 'bout our Woodstock across the nation
|
Although the roads were closed at a-half past three
|
If you had no ticket, they let you in free
|
The spirit of Woodstock remains in America today
|
|
I said, the spirit of Woodstock remains in America today
|
I said, the spirit of Woodstock remains in America today
