I've got a couple more years on you babe and that's all I've had more chances to fly and more places to fall It's not that I'm wiser, it's just that I've spent More time with my back to the wall and I've picked up A couple a more years on you babe and that's all
Now I've walked a couple more roads than you babe and that's all And I'm tired of running while you're only learning to crawl And you're going somewhere but I've been to somewhere And found it was nowhere at all and I picked up A couple more years on you babe and that's all
Sayin', "Goodbye girl don't ever come easy at all" But you got to fly cause you're hearin' them young eagles call Someday when you're older, you'll smile at a man strong and told And say I got a couple more years on you babe, that's all
You'll say, "I've got a couple more years on you babe and that's all" I've had more chances to fly and more places to fall It's not that I'm wiser, it's just that I've spent More time with my back to the wall and I've picked up A couple a more years on you babe and that's all.
