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