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