Sugar Mountain — Neil Young

Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain With the barkers and the colored balloons You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain Though you're thinking that you're leaving there too soon You're leaving there too soon

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

Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain With the barkers and the colored balloons You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain Though you're thinking that you're leaving there too soon You're leaving there too soon

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

Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain With the barkers and the colored balloons You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain Though you're thinking that you're leaving there too soon You're leaving there too soon

Now you're underneath the stairs And you're givin' back some glares To the people who you met And it's your first cigarette

Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain With the barkers and the colored balloons You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain Though you're thinking that you're leaving there too soon You're leaving there too soon

Now you say you're leavin' home 'Cause you want to be alone Ain't it funny how you feel When you're findin' out it's real

Oh, to live on Sugar Mountain With the barkers and the colored balloons You can't be twenty on Sugar Mountain Though you're thinking that you're leaving there too soon You're leaving there too soon
