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