Waylon Jennings - Couple More Years LYRICS

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...
