Well I got a couple more years on you babe
And that's all
I've had more chances to fly
And more places to fall
Ain't that I am wiser,
I've just spent more time
With my back to the wall
And I picked up a couple more years on you babe
But that's all

Well I have been down more roads than you babe
And that's all
And I am tired of running
When you're only learning to crawl
You're heading somewhere
But I've been that somewhere
Found out, it's nowhere at all
And I picked up a couple more years on you babe
But that's all

These words were unfinished since you were born babe,
And that's all
So I thought I'd play out of my league
And put on some gall
I've lived more winters to know
How scathing the winds blow
While you still forget to carry a shawl
And I picked up a couple more years on you babe
But that's all
