Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
It was a big, big world
But we thought we were bigger
Pushing each other to the limits
We were learning quicker
By eleven smoking herb
And drinking burning liquor
Never rich so we were out
To make that steady figure
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
I always had a dream
Like my daddy before me
So I started writing songs
I started writing stories
There's something about the glory
Just always seemed to bore me
'Cause only those I really love
Will ever really know me
[Verse 5]
Once I was 20 years old
My story got told
Before the morning sun
When life was lonely
Once I was 20 years old
[Verse 6]
Once I was 20 years old
[Verse 7]
Soon we'll be 30 years old
Our songs have been sold
We've traveled around the world
And we're still roaming
Soon we'll be thirty years old
[Verse 8]
I'm still learning about life
My woman brought children for me
So I can sing them all my songs
And I can tell them stories
Most of my boys are with me
Some are still out seeking glory
And some I had to leave behind
My brother, I'm so sorry
[Verse 9]
Soon I'll be 60 years old
Will I think the world is cold?
Or will I have a lot of children
Who can hold me?
Soon I'll be 60 years old
[Verse 10]
Soon I'll be 60 years old
Will I think the world is cold?
Or will I have a lot of children
Who can hold me?
Soon I'll be 60 years old
[Verse 11]
Once I was 7 years old
