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