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