Lyrics

Sugar Mountain (Live 11/24/76)

[Chorus]

Oh to live on Sugar Mountain

With the barkers and the colored balloons

You can't be 20 on Sugar Mountain

Though you're thinking that you're leavin' there too soon

You're leavin' there too soon

[Verse 1]

It's so noisy at the fair

But all your friends are there

And the candy floss you had

And your mother and your dad

[Chorus]

Oh to live on Sugar Mountain

With the barkers and the colored balloons

You can't be 20 on Sugar Mountain

Though you're thinking that you're leavin' there too soon

You're leavin' there too soon

[Verse 2]

There's a girl just down the aisle

Oh to turn and see her smile

You can hear the words she wrote

As you read the hidden note

[Harmonica Solo]

[Verse 3]

Now you're underneath the stairs

And you're giving back some glares

To the people who you met

And it's your first cigarette

It's your first

[Chorus]

Oh to live on Sugar Mountain

With the barkers and the colored balloons

You can't be 20 on Sugar Mountain

Though you're thinking that you're leavin' there too soon

You're leavin' there too soon

[Verse 4]

Now you say you're leaving home

Because you want to be alone

Ain't it funny how you feel

When you're findin' out it's real?

Real, when you're findin' out that it's real?

Ain't it funny how you feel

When you're findin' out it's real?

[Chorus]

Oh to live on Sugar Mountain

With the barkers and the colored balloons

You can't be 20 on Sugar Mountain

Though you're thinking that you're leavin' there too soon
