Take a walk up sugar mountain
Lose myself among the clouds
Get so high above this sleepy little town
That I ain't ever coming down
I surrender, it gets me every time
You pick me up and it's ok, I'm feeling fine
On sugar mountain, so effortless to climb, but
Why do I still want more, and
Why do I shiver in the sunlight
When the shadows fall
Across the face of sugar mountain
Jesus Christ may be a saviour
But he won't pay my bills
Just turned my wine back into water
And disappeared into the hills
To sugar mountain, rising above the trees
Coming up now, I ain't waiting for relief
My freedom, so easy to reach, but
<Chorus>
Take a walk up sugar mountain
Lose myself among the clouds
Get so high above this fucking dead-end town
That I ain't ever coming down
Maybe I'll save my soul tomorrow
