A Couple More Years

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

And it ain't that I'm wiser

It's only that I'm spent more time with my back to the wall

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

I've walked a couple more roads than you babe, that's all

And 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 baby, that's all

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

But you've gotta fly cos you're hearing them young eagles call

And some day 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

You'll say I've got a couple more years on you baby, 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 only that I'm spent more time with my back to the wall

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