      Lyric Video


      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
