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