Once I was seven years old
Once I was seven years old
my mama told me
"Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely"
 
we were learning quicker
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
 
"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
So I started writing songs
'Cause only those I really love
like my daddy before me
I started writing stories
just always seemed to bore me
will ever really know me
Something about that glory
 
Before the morning sun
Once I was twenty years old
Once I was twenty years old
when life was lonely
my story got told
(Lukas Graham!)
 
I only see my goals
at least those in favor
I got my boys with me
I hope I'll see you later
And if we don't meet before I leave
'Cause I know the smallest voices
I don't believe in failure
they can make it major
 
my story got told
Once I was twenty years old
Once I was twenty years old
I was writing about everything I saw before me
 
and we're still roaming
Soon we'll be thirty years old
our songs have been sold
Soon we'll be thirty years old
We've traveled around the world
 
My woman brought children for me
So I can sing them all my songs and I can tell them stories
And some I had to leave behind my brother, I'm still sorry
Most of my boys are with me
I'm still learning about life
Some are still out seeking glory
 
Remember life, and then your life becomes a better one
I made a man so happy
I hope my children come
my daddy got sixty-one
Soon I'll be sixty years old
and visit once or twice a month
when I wrote a letter once
 
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
 
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
 
my mama told me
or you'll be lonely"
Once I was seven years old
Once I was seven years old
Once I was seven years old
"Go make yourself some friends
