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