Spirit Of Woodstock

(album: A Legend - 1970)

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
