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