As performed at the 1963 Newport Folk Festival
Where did you come from
and where will you go?
tell me, my little one
do you know?
when will you blossom
and how will you grow?
tell me, small creature
do you know?
the world you re facin
is tired and warm
but new hope came through it
the day you are born
ahead lies the future
and all of it new
promise* is waiting
waiting for you
Where did you come from
where will you go?
tell me my little one
do you know?
