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