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