Lyrics
Well, 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
It ain't that I'm wiser, I've just spent more time with my back to the wall
And I've picked up a couple more years on you babe and that's all.

Well, I've been down more roads than you babe and that's all
Now I'm tired of running while you're only learning to crawl
You're heading somewhere but I've been that somewhere and found that it's nowhere at all
And I've picked up a couple more years on you babe and that's all.

Well, saying goodbye girl it never is easy at all
But you're gonna fly because you hear them young voices call
Someday when you're older you'll smile at a man strong and tall
You'll say I got a couple more years on you babe and that's all.

Well, 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
Well it ain't that I'm wiser, I've just spent more time with my back to the wall
And I've picked up a couple more years on you babe and that's all.
