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