Lyric discussion by powderfinger 

You're all right, but I can reveal a little more. I believe that Joni Mitchell (who knew neil back in canada to) once said that neil and his friends used to hang out at this place, club or something called sugar mountain. The agelimit was 20, so when he turned twenty he was out on the streets alone. Joni actually wrote her song "the circle game" about this song.

@powderfinger I am listening to Neil's Archives Vol. 1, and in there is a little live rap by him in which he confirms what you are saying, that Joni's "Circle Game" is a response to this song.
