I ought to get going 
I shouldn't stay here and love you 
More than I do 
Cause you're so much younger than I am 
Come up the years, come up the years 
And love me, love me love me 

A younger girl keeps hanging around 
One of the loveliest I've ever found 
Blowin' my mind, stealin' my heart 
Somebody help me 'fore I fall apart. 

I ought to get going 
I shouldn't stay here and love you 
More than I do 
Cause you're so much younger than I am 
Come up the years, come up the years 
And love me, love me love me 

The things she's doing keep turning me on 
And I've been happy to go right along 
I know it's time that I said goodbye 
I know I can't leave no matter how hard I try

I ought to get going 
I shouldn't stay here and love you 
More than I do 
Cause you're so much younger than I am 
Come up the years, come up the years 
And love me, love me love me
