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