A Couple More Years lyrics

I've got a couple more years on you, babe, that's all.

I've had more chances to fly and more places to fall.

And it ain't 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 more years on you, baby, that's all.

You've walked a couple more roads than me, baby, that's all.

And you're tired of running while I'm on a-learning to crawl.

And I'm heading somewhere, but you've been to somewhere

and found it was nowhere at all.

And I've picked up a couple more years on you baby, that's all.

Now sayin' goodbye, girl, don't never come easy at all.

But you've got to fly 'cuz you're hearin' those young eagles call.

And someday when you're older, you'll smile at a man strong and tall.

And you'll say I've got a couple more years on you, baby, that's all.

I've got a couple more years on you, baby, that's all.

And I've had more chances to fly and more places to fall.

And ain't 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 more years on you baby, that's all.
