verse 1 
                  C          G 
High and handsome stands the peak 
                             D     G 
There stands the mountain of Sugar Creek 
                    C    G 
Come sassy bees and sexy knees  
                        D        G      C G   D G    
And possums swingin’ on sycamore trees 


verse 2 
                         C             G 
You can sit and stare at nothin’ in particular 
                    D            G 
Sit and dream where life’s perpendicular 
                  C         G 
Sky and trees and rocks and ground 
                    D    G      C G   D G 
All up and down and all around 

 
           N.C. 
You’re home little gal, so do-si-do 
      C           G            D        G 
Round Sugar Creek Mountain and don’t be slow 
    N.C. 
Four steps back and better be counting 
   C           G       D             G    C  G   D G   C G   D G 
Or you’ll step off ol’ Sugar Creek - Mountain__

verse 3 
                             C         G 
You wait for the wisdom that wind will bring 
                          D        G 
You learn how to live and love and sing 
                    C        G 
Breathe in deep and feel the burning 
                     D           G         C G   D G    
Deeper than life and deeper than learning

Wild sweet notes from a wild sweet throat 
                   D          G 
Echoing songs that never been wrote 
                      C          G 
Wild and sweet like a sugar cane treat 
                       D         G     C G   D G  
Dance the fellas right off their feet

Bridge 

With the feet a-prancin’ and your blood a-dancing 
C      G                   D         G 
Eyes a-glancin’ while your heart’s romancin’  

Swing to the music of that clear sweet fountain 
     C               G       D           G         C G   D G 
That slides down the side of Sugar Creek Mountain 


Verse 5 
                               C        G 
You can’t get to heaven if you push and shove 
                   D       G 
Just promenade the one you love 
               C      G 
Oh, by Joe and oh, by gee 
                           D          G    C G   D G    
Don’t look at her when you dance with me  


Verse 6

Dive through the middle, don’t shove or push 
                     D        G 
Keep goin’ round the mulberry bush 
                C      G 
Oh, by gosh and oh, by Joe 
                           D       G      C G   D G 
This may be the last time, I don’t know

Round Sugar Creek Mountain and don’t be slow
