Not Yet Three

Lyrics
[Verse 1] Could you sleep at a time like this? Hearin' Oldsmobiles travelin' 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 [Chorus] You think I should be fadin' now That's because I'm not yet three But my strength still ain't abatin' now I'm stronger than you, you're simply bigger than me [Verse 2] 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? [Chorus] You think I should be tirеd now But my body is all inspired now And yes, it's true that I'm not yеt three But I'm stronger than you, you're simply bigger than me [Verse 3] Look, I sat up in my crib and you didn't like that So now I have to lie down flat on my back Can't get outta this thing, I can't get outta here But if you think I'm sleepin', oh, no, that's all mistaken, that's right [Chorus] You think I should be dozin' now But my cheeks are still a-rosin' now And yes, it's true that I'm not yet three Doesn't matter, I'm stronger than you, you're simply bigger than me [Verse 4] Well now, if what you've done is grown up, I hate to clue you I just plain don't like you and I'm tellin' this to you You know about history and geometry But you don't know enough to just let the baby be [Chorus] 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, okay [Outro] (La-la-la-la, la-lee-ah, la-lo) Yes (La-la-la-la, la-lee-ah, la-lo) La-la-la-la, la-lee-ah, la-lo (La-la-la-la, la-lee-ah, la-lo) La-la-la, lee-ah-la, lo (La-la-la, lee-ah-la, lo) Yeah (La-la, lee-ah-la, lo)
