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 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 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 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 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
