A Couple More Years

I've got a couple more years on you, babe
That's all
And I've had more chances to fly
And more places to fall

And it ain't that I'm wiser
It's only that I've spent more time
With my back to the wall
And I've picked up a couple more years on you, babe
That's all

Don't you know I've walked
A couple more roads than you babe
That's all
I'm tired of running
While you're only learning to crawl

And you're heading somewhere
But I've been to somewhere
And found it was nowhere at all
And I've picked up a couple more years on you, babe
That's all

Now, saying goodbye, boy
Don't ever come easy at all
But you've got to fly
'Cause you're hearing those young eagles call

And someday when you're older
I'll smile at a man strong and tall
And you'll say
I've got a couple more years on you, babe
That's all

You'll say I've got a couple more years on you, babe
Tthat's all
And I've had more chances to fly
And more places to fall

And it ain't that I'm wiser
It's only that I've spent more time
With my back to the wall
And I've picked up a couple more years on you, babe
That's all

Yeah, I've got a couple more years on you, babe
That's all
And I've had more chances to fly
And more places to fall

And it ain't that I'm wiser
It's only that I've spent more time
With my back to the wall
And I've picked up a couple more years on you, babe
That's all
