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
That`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 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 going 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
[ steel ]
Saying goodbye girl don`t ever come easy at all
But you`ve got to fly cause you`re hearin` them young eagles call
Someday when you`re older you`ll smile at a man strong and tall
And say I`ve got a couple more years on you baby that`s all
You`ll say I`ve got a couple more years...
