unknown

Long distance information, give me memphis tennessee
Help me find the party trying to get in touch with me
She could not leave her number, but i know who placed the call
'cause my uncle took the message and he wrote it on the wall

Help me, information, get in touch with my marie
She's the only one who'd phone me here from memphis tennessee
Her home is on the south side, high up on a ridge
Just a half a mile from the mississippi bridge

Help me, information, more than that i cannot add
Only that i miss her and all the fun we had
But we were pulled apart because her mom did not agree
And tore apart our happy home in memphis tennessee

Last time i saw marie she's waving me good-bye
With hurry home drops on her cheek that trickled from her eye
Try to put me through to her in memphis tennessee

Well, i came upon a child of god
He was walking along the road
And i asked him, tell me, where are you going
This he told me:

Said, i'm going down to yasgur's farm
Gonna join in a rock and roll band
Got to get back to the land
And set my soul free

{refrain}
We are stardust
We are golden
We are billion-year-old carbon
And we got to get ourselves
Back to the garden

Well then, can i walk beside you?
I have come to lose the smog
And i feel myself a cog
In something turning

And maybe it's the time of year
Yes, and maybe it's the time of man
And i don't know who i am
But life is for learning

{refrain twice}

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

1. oh, the summer time is coming,
And the trees are sweetly blooming,
And the wild mountain thyme
Grows around the blooming heather.

Chorus:
Will you go, lassie, go?
And we'll all go together
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the blooming heather,
Will you go lassie, go?

2. i will build my love a bower
By yon clear and crystal fountain,
And on it i will pile
All the flowers of the mountain.
3. if my true love, she won't have me,
I will surely find another
To pull wild mountain thyme
All around the blooming heather.

4. oh, the summer time is coming
And the trees are sweetly blooming
And the wild mountain thyme
Grows around the blooming heather

I wanna tell you how it's gonna be,
You're gonna give your love to me,
I wanna love you night and day,
You know my love not fade away.

You know my love not fade away, not fade away!

My love is bigger than a cadillac,
I try to show you but you drive me back,
Your love for me has got to be real,
You're gonna know just how i feel.

Our love is real, not fade away, not fade away!

Well i'm gonna raise a fuss
And i'm gonna raise a holler
About workin' all summer
Just tryin' to earn a dollar
Well, i went to my boss
Who governs me
He said, "no, dice, bud
You gotta work late"

Sometime i wonder
What i'm gonnna do
There ain't no cure
For the summertime blues

Well, my mom and papa told me
Now you better earn some money
If one of you is gonna go
Ridin' next sunday
Well, i didn't go to work
I told my boss i was sick
He said, "you can't use the car
'cause you didn't work a lick"

Sometime i wonder
What i'm gonnna do
There ain't no cure
For the summertime blues

Gonna save two weeks
Gonna have a fine vacation
Gonna take my problem
To the united nations
Well, i went to my congressman
He sent me back a note
It said, "i''d like to help you, hon
But you're too young to vote"

Sometime i wonder
What i'm gonnna do
There ain't no cure
For the summertime blues

Now there ain't no cure
For the summertime blues
Now there ain't no cure
For the summertime blues
