Could you sleep at a time like this? Hearing Oldsmobiles traveling from town to town I hear the older kids run past the trees in the mist I hear them laugh in the breeze as the sun goes down You think I should be fading now That's because I'm not yet three But my strength still ain't abating now I'm stronger than you You're simply bigger than me
Well, yonder the sun has turned the town bright yellow I love twilight more than you do, Hello You don't love twilight as much as me Why don't you take the nap and let the baby be You think I should be tired now But my body's all inspired now And yes it's true that I'm not yet three But I'm stronger than you You're simply bigger than me
Look, I sat up in my crib and you didn't like that So now I have to lie down flat on my back I can't get out of this thing I can't get out of here But if you think I'm sleeping, oh no, that's all mistaken That's right You think I should be dozing now But my cheeks are still a rosing now And yes it's true that I'm not yet three It doesn't matter, I'm stronger than you You're simply bigger than me
Well now if what you've done is grown up, I hate to clue ya I just plain don't like you and I'm telling this to ya You know about history and geometry But you don't know enough to just let the baby be And you think I should be tired now That's because I'm not yet three My body's all inspired now In fact, I'm stronger than you You're simply bigger than me O.K. Yes la la la la
