Woodstock (Undressed)

Here I am in the field where Woodstock happened

The museum didn't make me feel a thing

But staring out across this empty hillside

Something in my heart begins to sing

A giant peace sign is mowed into the hillside

So I make my way up through the muddy grass

And lay down in the center of the symbol

And start to hear these voices from the past

Singing Freedom, Freedom

That song fills my heart up till it bursts

Freedom, Freedom

I'm crying like a baby calling to its Mama

Please won't you come and quench my thirst?

Well I imagine I'm surrounded by all the people

Huddled up and smoking grass in '69

And the sky begins to cry like Jimi Hendrix

And a monarch floats right over like a sign

So I begin to write my younger self a letter

And tell her that I love her finally

That I'll protect her, I will not neglect her

And I bury it underneath the message tree

Freedom, freedom

That song fills my heart until it bursts

Freedom, freedom

I crying like a baby, calling to its Mama

Please won't you come and quench my thirst?

Always felt I was born in the wrong time

But maybe we're just always chasing ghosts

My generation, we are not the Woodstock nation

But coming together is what I want the most

Freedom, freedom

That song fills my heart until it bursts

Freedom, freedom

I crying like a baby

Freedom, freedom

That song fills my heart up till it bursts

Freedom, freedom

I crying like a baby, calling to its Mama

Please won't you come and quench my thirst?
