7 Years Old
[00:19.91] Once I was seven years old my momma told me
[00:25.43] Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely
[00:28.91] Once I was seven years old
[00:35.91] It was a big big world, but we thought we were bigger
[00:40.91] Pushing each other to the limits, we were learning quicker
[00:45.19] By eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquor
[00:49.16] Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure
[00:53.16] Once I was eleven years old my daddy told me
[00:57.16] Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely
[01:00.66] Once I was eleven years old
[01:07.67] I always had that dream like my daddy before me
[01:13.16] So I started writing songs, I started writing stories
[01:16.91] Something about that glory just always seemed to bore me
[01:21.16] 'Cause only those I really love will ever really know me
[01:24.95] Once I was twenty years old, my story got told
[01:29.16] Before the morning sun, when life was lonely
[01:33.17] Once I was twenty years old
[01:40.93] I only see my goals, I don't believe in failure
[01:45.17] 'Cause I know the smallest voices, they can make it major
[01:49.41] I got my boys with me at least those in favor
[01:52.92] And if we don't meet before I leave, I hope I'll see you later
[01:56.92] Once I was twenty years old, my story got told
[02:01.43] I was writing about everything, I saw before me
[02:04.92] Once I was twenty years old
[02:11.67] Soon we'll be thirty years old, our songs have been sold
[02:17.44] We've traveled around the world and we're still roaming
[02:20.91] Soon we'll be thirty years old
[02:26.93] I'm still learning about life
[02:31.17] My woman brought children for me
[02:33.18] So I can sing them all my songs
[02:35.42] And I can tell them stories
[02:37.19] Most of my boys are with me
[02:38.91] Some are still out seeking glory
[02:41.16] And some I had to leave behind
[02:43.16] My brother I'm still sorry
[02:44.93] Soon I'll be sixty years old, my daddy got sixty-one
[02:49.41] Remember life and then your life becomes a better one
[02:52.91] I made a man so happy when I wrote a letter once
[02:56.92] I hope my children come and visit, once or twice a month
[03:01.17] Soon I'll be sixty years old, will I think the world is cold
[03:05.67] Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me
[03:08.67] Soon I'll be sixty years old
[03:15.91] Soon I'll be sixty years old, will I think the world is cold
[03:21.70] Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me
[03:24.66] Soon I'll be sixty years old
[03:31.94] Once I was seven years old, momma told me
[03:37.68] Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely
[03:40.94] Once I was seven years old
[03:48.41] Once I was seven years old
