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