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