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
By eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquor
Pushing each other to the limits
but we thought we were bigger
It was a big big world
we were learning quicker
 
Once I was eleven years old
Once I was eleven years old
"Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely"
my daddy told me
 
I always had that dream
will ever really know me
So I started writing songs
just always seemed to bore me
like my daddy before me
I started writing stories
'Cause only those I really love
Something about that glory
 
Once I was twenty years old
when life was lonely
Before the morning sun
(Lukas Graham!)
my story got told
Once I was twenty years old
 
I got my boys with me
I don't believe in failure
at least those in favor
I hope I'll see you later
I only see my goals
they can make it major
And if we don't meet before I leave
'Cause I know the smallest voices
 
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
and we're still roaming
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
My woman brought children for me
I'm still learning about life
Some are still out seeking glory
Most of my boys are with me
 
I hope my children come
Remember life, and then your life becomes a better one
my daddy got sixty-one
and visit once or twice a month
Soon I'll be sixty years old
I made a man so happy
when I wrote a letter once
 
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
 
will I think the world is cold
Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me?
Soon I'll be sixty years old
Soon I'll be sixty years old
 
Once I was seven years old
Once I was seven years old
Once I was seven years old
or you'll be lonely"
my mama told me
"Go make yourself some friends
