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

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

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 baby that's all



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

And I'm tired of running while you're only learning to crawl

And you're goin' 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 ever come easy at all

But you've got to fly cause you're hearing those young eagles call

Someday when you're older you'll smile at someone younger and eager to fall

You'll say I got a couple more years on you baby that's all

And you'll say I got a couple more years...

You'll say honey I've picked up a couple more years on you baby that's all
