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