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"
 
By eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquor
It was a big big world
we were learning quicker
Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure
Pushing each other to the limits
but we thought we were bigger
 
Once I was eleven years old
my daddy told me
"Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely"
Once I was eleven years old
 
So I started writing songs
will ever really know me
just always seemed to bore me
Something about that glory
like my daddy before me
I always had that dream
I started writing stories
'Cause only those I really love
 
Before the morning sun
(Lukas Graham!)
when life was lonely
my story got told
Once I was twenty years old

I hope I'll see you later
I don't believe in failure
at least those in favor

I was writing about everything I saw before me

and we're still roaming
our songs have been sold
 
Some are still out seeking glory
My woman brought children for me
I'm still learning about life
And some I had to leave behind my brother, I'm still sorry
Most of my boys are with me
So I can sing them all my songs and I can tell them stories
 
I hope my children come
my daddy got sixty-one
Soon I'll be sixty years old
I made a man so happy
and visit once or twice a month
when I wrote a letter once
Remember life, and then your life becomes a better one
 
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?
