7 years
[00:17.41] Once I was seven years old
[00:19.92] my momma told me
[00:22.16] Go make yourself some friends
[00:23.92] or you'll be lonely
[00:25.41] Once I was seven years old
[00:33.41] It was a big big world
[00:35.66] but we thought we were bigger
[00:37.94] Pushing each other to the limits
[00:40.18] we were learning quicker
[00:42.16] By eleven smoking herb and
[00:43.90] drinking burning liquor
[00:46.16] Never rich so we were out
[00:47.65] to make that steady figure
[00:49.42] Once I was eleven years old
[00:52.17] my daddy told me
[00:53.91] Go get yourself a wife
[00:55.92] or you'll be lonely
[00:57.41] Once I was eleven years old
[01:06.16] I always had that dream
[01:07.91] like my daddy before me
[01:09.91] So I started writing songs
[01:12.16] I started writing stories
[01:13.92] Something about that glory
[01:15.91] just always seemed to bore me
[01:17.91] 'Cause only those
[01:18.91] I really love will
[01:20.18] ever really know me
[01:21.66] Once I was twenty years old
[01:23.91] my story got told
[01:26.41] Before the morning sun
[01:28.17] when life was lonely
[01:29.42] Once I was twenty years old
[01:37.66] I only see my goals
[01:39.91] I don't believe in failure
[01:41.91] 'Cause I know the smallest voices
[01:44.16] they can make it major
[01:45.90] I got my boys with me
[01:47.66] at least those in favor
[01:49.91] And if we don't meet
[01:50.92] before I leave
[01:52.16] I hope I'll see you later
[01:53.41] Once I was twenty years old
[01:55.92] my story got told
[01:57.93] I was writing about everything
[01:59.90] I saw before me
[02:01.41] Once I was twenty years old
[02:09.42] Soon we'll be thirty years old
[02:12.16] our songs have been sold
[02:14.16] We've traveled around the world
[02:16.16] and we're still roaming
[02:17.42] Soon we'll be thirty years old
[02:25.91] I'm still learning about life
[02:27.90] My woman brought children for me
[02:29.91] So I can sing them all my songs
[02:31.90] And I can tell them stories
[02:33.67] Most of my boys are with me
[02:35.66] Some are still out seeking glory
[02:38.15] And some I had to leave behind
[02:39.91] My brother I'm still sorry
[02:41.41] Soon I'll be sixty years old
[02:43.91] my daddy got sixty-one
[02:45.91] Remember life and then
[02:47.16] your life becomes a better one
[02:49.91] I made a man so happy
[02:51.66] when I wrote a letter once
[02:53.91] I hope my children
[02:54.91] come and visit
[02:55.92] once or twice a month
[02:57.41] Soon I'll be sixty years old
[02:59.90] will I think the world is cold
[03:01.91] Or will I have a lot of children
[03:03.91] who can warm me
[03:05.41] Soon I'll be sixty years old
[03:13.43] Soon I'll be sixty years old
[03:15.66] will I think the world is cold
[03:17.91] Or will I have a lot of children
[03:19.92] who can warm me
[03:21.42] Soon I'll be sixty years old
[03:29.43] Once I was seven years old
[03:31.92] momma told me
[03:34.17] Go make yourself some friends
[03:35.91] or you'll be lonely
[03:37.42] Once I was seven years old
[03:45.41] Once I was seven years old
