      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.

      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.
