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