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