7 Years

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 the 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 atleast those in favor

And if we don't meet before I leave I hope I'll see you later
Once I was 20 years old my story got told

I was writing about everything I saw before me
Once I was 20 years old

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 30 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 60 years old my daddy got 61

Remember life and then your life becomes a better one

I made the 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 60 years old will I think the world is cold
Or will I have a lot of children who can bore me
Soon I'll be 60 years old

Soon I'll be 60 years old will I think the world is cold
Or will I have a lot of children who can bore me
Soon I'll be 60 years old

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

Once I was seven years old
