Once I was seven years old
Once I was seven years old
"Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely"
my mama told me
 
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
It was a big big world
we were learning quicker
Pushing each other to the limits
 
my daddy told me
"Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely"
Once I was eleven years old
Once I was eleven years old
 
So I started writing songs
will ever really know me
I always had that dream
just always seemed to bore me
like my daddy before me
Something about that glory
'Cause only those I really love
I started writing stories
 
Once I was twenty years old
(Lukas Graham!)
my story got told
Before the morning sun
when life was lonely
Once I was twenty years old
 
I only see my goals
they can make it major
I hope I'll see you later
'Cause I know the smallest voices
I don't believe in failure
And if we don't meet before I leave
at least those in favor
I got my boys with me
 
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
We've traveled around the world
our songs have been sold
Soon we'll be thirty years old
and we're still roaming
 
Some are still out seeking glory
So I can sing them all my songs and I can tell them stories
And some I had to leave behind my brother, I'm still sorry
Most of my boys are with me
My woman brought children for me
I'm still learning about life
 
I made a man so happy
when I wrote a letter once
my daddy got sixty-one
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
 
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
Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me?
will I think the world is cold
Soon I'll be sixty years old
 
my mama told me
Once I was seven years old
or you'll be lonely"
Once I was seven years old
"Go make yourself some friends
Once I was seven years old
