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"
 
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
By eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquor
It was a big big world
 
Once I was eleven years old
Once I was eleven years old
my daddy told me
"Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely"
 
will ever really know me
like my daddy before me
I always had that dream
I started writing stories
So I started writing songs
Something about that glory
just always seemed to bore me
'Cause only those I really love
 
Before the morning sun
Once I was twenty years old
(Lukas Graham!)
my story got told
when life was lonely
Once I was twenty years old
 
I hope I'll see you later
I only see my goals
And if we don't meet before I leave
I got my boys with me
'Cause I know the smallest voices
at least those in favor
they can make it major
I don't believe in failure
 
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
 
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
 
Some are still out seeking glory
My woman brought children for 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
Most of my boys are with me
 
Remember life, and then your life becomes a better one
Soon I'll be sixty years old
I made a man so happy
I hope my children come
my daddy got sixty-one
when I wrote a letter once
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
 
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?
 
Once I was seven years old
or you'll be lonely"
my mama told me
Once I was seven years old
"Go make yourself some friends
Once I was seven years old
