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