Song Lyrics

"Back To The Garden"

by Rob Frazier
Album: Jammin' The Blues

Words and music: Rob Frazier and Joseph Perry

Walking down a pilgrim road
I met a man with a radio
Coming from Philadelphia
Bound for utopia Second generation
Of the Woodstock nation
He said I got to get back there
Grow me some long hair

But I'm asking him
How far do you have to go
To find what you're looking for
How much will you pay
On your way back to the garden

All the time that's come and gone
Still we're singing the same song
Still believing the fantasy
That love can be free
Sex, drugs and rock n' roll
Yeah, they've taken a heavy toll
Broken lives and families
Like some kind of disease

But I'm asking him
How far do you have to go
To find what you're looking for
How much will you pay
On your way back to the garden
Back to Eden

Peace, love and understanding
That's what everybody needs
But till we do a little heart transplanting
We're never dealing with human greed
And all the other evils of the human race
How we corrupt, destroy and otherwise deface
The image of God that was placed in us
There's only one way and that's Jesus
To get back to the garden
Back to Eden
