A Couple More Years Lyrics

Artist : CHESNUTT, MARK
Album : Outlaw
(duet with Amber Digby)

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
It'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 runnin' while you're only learnin' to crawl
And you're goin' somewhere but I've been somewhere
Found it was nowhere at all
I've picked up a couple more years on you, baby, that's all

Sayin' goodbye, girl, don't never come easy at all
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
Say I've got a couple more years on you, baby, that's all

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
It'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
