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