7 Years

Once I was seven years old my mama told me

  • 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 was writing about everything I saw before me
  • Once I was twenty years 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
  • 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
  • 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
  • Once I was seven years old
