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