Sunnuntaiklassikko valitaan Woodstock-1969in muistoksi pääasiassa ulkomusiikillisista ansioistaan.
Monista merkittävistä esityksistä olen aina nostanut ykköseksi tämän joka musiikillisesti on lähinnä RALLATUS eikä sävelkään ole kovin omaperäinen.
Country Joe & FISH
Intro Spoken
Give me an "F! ..."F"! give me a "U"! ..."U"!
Give me a "C"! ..."C" Give me a "K"! ..."K"!
WHATS THAT SPELL? ..."FUCK!" (x5)
Well come on all of you big strong men, Uncle Sam needs your help again,
he got himself in a terrible jam, way down yonder in Vietnam,
put down your books and pick up a gun, we're gunna have a whole lotta fun.
CHORUS

and its 5,6,7 open up the pearly gates. Well there aint no time to wonder why...WHOPEE we're all gunna die.
now come on wall street don't be slow, why man this's war a-go-go,
there's plenty good money to be made, supplyin' the army with the tools of the trade,
just hope and pray that when they drop the bomb, they drop it on the Vietcong.
CHORUS
now come on generals lets move fast, your big chance is here at last.

come on fathers don't hesitate, send your sons off before its too late,
be the first one on your block, to have your boy come home in a box
CHORUS

P.S. Edellisen postauksen kommenteissa Lepis epäili sitä että voiko kuulua hippisukupolveen jos on ollut 10-vuotias vuonna 1969, ilman muuta - silloin on vain jälkihippi :)
Todisteeksi kuva meikäläisestä vuodelta 1975, eli heti aloitettiin viikonloppuhippeily kun äiti antoi luvan ja kynnelle kyettiin. (Jos löydän, laitan kuvan myös vuodelta 1969 myöhemmin)
