Once I was seven years old
Once I was seven years old
my mama told me
"Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely"
 
we were learning quicker
but we thought we were bigger
Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure
Pushing each other to the limits
By eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquor
It was a big big world
 
my daddy told me
Once I was eleven years old
Once I was eleven years old
"Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely"
 
just always seemed to bore me
Something about that glory
So I started writing songs
like my daddy before me
I started writing stories
I always had that dream
will ever really know me
'Cause only those I really love
 
Once I was twenty years old
Before the morning sun
when life was lonely
my story got told
Once I was twenty years old
(Lukas Graham!)
 
I got my boys with me
I only see my goals
I don't believe in failure
And if we don't meet before I leave
they can make it major
at least those in favor
'Cause I know the smallest voices
I hope I'll see you later
 
I was writing about everything I saw before me
my story got told
Once I was twenty years old
Once I was twenty years old
 
our songs have been sold
Soon we'll be thirty years old
We've traveled around the world
Soon we'll be thirty years old
and we're still roaming
 
Some are still out seeking glory
So I can sing them all my songs and I can tell them stories
I'm still learning about life
Most of my boys are with me
And some I had to leave behind my brother, I'm still sorry
My woman brought children for me
 
I made a man so happy
Soon I'll be sixty years old
my daddy got sixty-one
when I wrote a letter once
Remember life, and then your life becomes a better one
and visit once or twice a month
I hope my children come
 
Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me?
Soon I'll be sixty years old
Soon I'll be sixty years old
will I think the world is cold
 
Soon I'll be sixty years old
will I think the world is cold
Soon I'll be sixty years old
Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me?
 
Once I was seven years old
Once I was seven years old
Once I was seven years old
"Go make yourself some friends
my mama told me
or you'll be lonely"
