"Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely"
my mama told me
Once I was seven years old
Once I was seven years old
 
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
we were learning quicker
but we thought we were bigger
 
Once I was eleven years old
my daddy told me
Once I was eleven years old
"Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely"
 
like my daddy before me
I started writing stories
I always had that dream
Something about that glory
just always seemed to bore me
will ever really know me
So I started writing songs
'Cause only those I really love
 
when life was lonely
Before the morning sun
(Lukas Graham!)
Once I was twenty years old
my story got told
Once I was twenty years old
 
I got my boys with me
I only see my goals
And if we don't meet before I leave
at least those in favor
I don't believe in failure
'Cause I know the smallest voices
they can make it major
I hope I'll see you later
 
my story got told
Once I was twenty years old
I was writing about everything I saw before me
Once I was twenty years old
 
our songs have been sold
We've traveled around the world
and we're still roaming
Soon we'll be thirty years old
Soon we'll be thirty years old
 
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
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
and visit once or twice a month
my daddy got sixty-one
Soon I'll be sixty years old
Remember life, and then your life becomes a better one
I hope my children come
when I wrote a letter once
 
Soon I'll be sixty years old
Soon I'll be sixty years old
will I think the world is cold
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
 
Once I was seven years old
or you'll be lonely"
Once I was seven years old
"Go make yourself some friends
my mama told me
Once I was seven years old
