Lyrics: 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 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

Once I was eleven years old my daddy told me, Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely Once I was eleven years old

I always had that dream like my daddy before me So I started writing songs, I started writing stories Something about that glory just always seemed to bore me ‘Cause only those I really love will ever really know me

Once I was twenty years old my story got told Before the morning sun when life was lonely Once I was twenty years old

I only see my goals I don't believe in failure ‘Cause I know the smallest voices they can make it major I got my boys with me, at least those in favor And if we don't meet before I leave I hope I'll see you later

Once I was twenty years old my story got told I waswriting 'bout everything I saw before me Once I was twenty years old

Soon we'll be thirty years old, our songs have been sold We'vetraveled around the world and we're still roaming Soon we'll be thirty years old

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 still sorry

Soon I'll be sixty years old, my daddy got sixty-one Remember life and then your life becomes a better one I made a man so happy when I wrote a letter once I hope my children come and visit once or twice a month

Soon I'll be sixty years old, 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
