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 though we were bigger
Pushing each other to the limits we were learning quicker
By 11 smoking herbs and drinking burning liquor
Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure
Once I was 11 years old
My daddy told me
"Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely"
Once I was 11 years old
I always had that dream
Like my daddy before me
So I started writing songs, I started writing stories
Something about the glory
Always seem to bored me
'Cause only those I really love will ever really know me
Once I was 20 years old
My story got told
Before the morning sun when live was lonely
Once I was 20 years old
Ooh no
