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