7 Years

7 Years Lyrics

Once I was seven years old, my momma 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 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 favour, 
And if we don't Need before I leave, I hope to 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 rolling. 
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 warm 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 warm me 
Soon I'll be 60 years old

Once I was seven years old, my momma told me 
Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely 
Once I was seven years old

Once I was seven years old
