Neil Young wrote “Sugar Mountain” on his 19th birthday (November 12, 1964) when he was playing with the Squires.

[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 smilе
You can hear the words she wrotе
As you read a hidden note
[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 3]
Now you're underneath the stairs
And you're giving back some glares
To the people that you met
And it's your first cigarette
[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
'Cause you want to be alone
Ain't it funny how you feel
When you're findin' out it's real, 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
You're leavin' there too soon
