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