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