lyrics

Woodstock Generation

Words and Music by Doug Osborne

i came upon a child of god
she was stumblin, mumblin something to me
i asked her where she was going, this she told me
i’m going down to max’s farm, i’ve come here in a fog

cut me loose, got some dust from these dudes
they’ve been here ten years to the day
heard there was a concert - did the Doors really play?
was this the one where he was rude?

Is this the woodstock generation
do we have pepsi on our breath
is this the woodstock generation
or have we caught our death

by the time that we left woodstock
we were half again as weak as the last time we could speak
well this time it’s not a dream to see the bombers poised for their attack
a cowboy’s murderous dreams on our back

should I buy for you, i can see your frustration
you wanna be like mom and dad before it’s too late
drunk and dirty by the 2 it’s their life you hate
but it’s hard, cut off from imagination
