Lyrics

[00:20.500] Once I was seven years old my momma told me
[00:25.040] Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely
[00:28.430] Once I was seven years old
[00:36.790] It was a big big world, but we thought we were bigger
[00:41.020] Pushing each other to the limits, we were learning quicker
[00:45.060] By eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquor
[00:49.010] Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure
[00:52.480] Once I was eleven years old my daddy told me
[00:57.020] Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely
[01:00.470] Once I was eleven years old
[01:08.910] I always had that dream like my daddy before me
[01:12.730] So I started writing songs, I started writing stories
[01:16.840] Something about the glory, just always seemed to bore me
[01:20.640] Cause only those I really love will ever really know me
[01:24.610] Once I was 20 years old, my story got told
[01:29.270] Before the morning sun, when life was lonely
[01:32.470] Once I was 20 years old
[01:35.970] Lukas Graham!!!
[01:40.870] I only see my goals, I don't believe in failure
[01:44.890] Cause I know the smallest voices, they can make it major
[01:48.720] I got my boys with me at least those in favor
[01:52.810] And if we don't meet before I leave, I hope I'll see you later
[01:56.510] Once I was 20 years old, my story got told
[02:00.820] I was writing about everything, I saw before me
[02:04.440] Once I was 20 years old
[02:12.520] Soon we'll be 30 years old, our songs have been sold
[02:16.810] We've traveled around the world and we're still roaming
[02:20.470] Soon we'll be 30 years old
[02:28.760] I'm still learning about life
[02:30.720] My woman brought children for me
[02:32.680] So I can sing them all my songs
[02:34.620] And I can tell them stories
[02:36.720] Most of my boys are with me
[02:38.460] Some are still out seeking glory
[02:40.710] And some I had to leave behind
[02:42.780] My brother I'm still sorry
[02:44.520] Soon I'll be 60 years old, my daddy got 61
[02:48.930] Remember life and then your life becomes a better one
[02:52.710] I made a man so happy when I wrote a letter once
[02:56.740] I hope my children come and visit, once or twice a month
[03:00.370] Soon I'll be 60 years old, will I think the world is cold
[03:04.700] Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me
[03:08.350] Soon I'll be 60 years old
[03:16.520] Soon I'll be 60 years old, will I think the world is cold
[03:20.800] Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me
[03:24.450] Soon I'll be 60 years old
[03:32.430] Once I was seven years old, my momma told me
[03:36.880] Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely
[03:40.470] Once I was seven years old
[03:48.400] Once I was seven years old
