Once I was seven years old
my mama told me
"Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely"
 
It was a big big world
By eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquor
we were learning quicker
but we thought we were bigger

Pushing each other to the limits

I always had that dream
Something about that glory
just always seemed to bore me
will ever really know me
'Cause only those I really love
I started writing stories
like my daddy before me
So I started writing songs

when life was lonely
Once I was twenty years old
Before the morning sun
Once I was twenty years old

I hope I'll see you later
I don't believe in failure
I got my boys with me

at least those in favor
'Cause I know the smallest voices

Once I was twenty years old
I was writing about everything I saw before me

Most of my boys are with me
Some are still out seeking glory
My woman brought children for me
So I can sing them all my songs and I can tell them stories
And some I had to leave behind my brother, I'm still sorry
 
my daddy got sixty-one
I hope my children come
and visit once or twice a month
I made a man so happy
Remember life, and then your life becomes a better one
Soon I'll be sixty years old
when I wrote a letter once
 
will I think the world is cold
Soon I'll be sixty years old
Soon I'll be sixty years old
Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me?
