Once I was seven years old
Once I was seven years old
"Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely"
my mama told me
 
but we thought we were bigger
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
Pushing each other to the limits
we were learning quicker
 
Once I was eleven years old
Once I was eleven years old
my daddy told me
"Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely"
 
So I started writing songs
I always had that dream
I started writing stories
'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
 
(Lukas Graham!)
when life was lonely
Once I was twenty years old
my story got told
Once I was twenty years old
Before the morning sun
 
I don't believe in failure
I got my boys with me
I only see my goals
I hope I'll see you later
they can make it major
'Cause I know the smallest voices
at least those in favor
And if we don't meet before I leave
 
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
 
Soon we'll be thirty years old
We've traveled around the world
and we're still roaming
our songs have been sold
Soon we'll be thirty years old
 
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
My woman brought children for me
And some I had to leave behind my brother, I'm still sorry
I'm still learning about life
 
and visit once or twice a month
Remember life, and then your life becomes a better one
I made a man so happy
when I wrote a letter once
I hope my children come
my daddy got sixty-one
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?
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
Soon I'll be sixty years old
 
Once I was seven years old
"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
