Sugar Mountain Lyrics

Sugar Mountain

Oh, to live on sugar mountain

 With the Barkers and the coloured 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 coloured 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 you 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 coloured 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 giving 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 coloured 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 leaving home

 'Cause you want to be alone

 Ain't it funny how you feel

 When you're finding out it's real

 

 Oh, to live on sugar mountain

 With the Barkers and the coloured 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

 

 Oh, to live on sugar mountain

 With the Barkers and the coloured balloons

 You can't be twenty on sugar mountain

 Though you're thinking that

 You're leaving there too soon
