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