7 Years

Once I was seven years old, my mamma 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 won't learn them 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 feel my goals, I don't believe in failure
'Cause I know the smallest voice they can make a major

I got my boys with me
At least those in favor
And if we don't meet before I leave
I hope I see you later

Once I was twenty years old, my story got told
I was writing 'bout everything that started before me
Once I was twenty year old

Soon we'll be thirty 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

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

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

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
Seven years old
