Sugar Mountain (Live 11/24/76) Lyrics
[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
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
[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
