Lyrics
Once I was sev en years old, my ma ma told me, “Go make your self some friends or you’ll be lone ly.” Once I was sev en years old.
It was a big, big world, but we thought we were big ger.
Push ing each oth er to the lim its, we were learn ing quick er.
By e lev en, smok ing herb and drink ing burn ing li quor.
Nev er rich so we were out to make that stead y fig ure.
Once I was e lev en years old, my dad dy told me, “Go get your self a wife or you’ll be lone ly.” Once I was e lev en years old.
I al ways had that dream like my dad dy be fore me, so I start ed writ ing songs, I start ed writ ing sto ries.
Some thing a bout that glo ry, just al ways seemed to bore me ’cause on ly those I real ly love will ev er real ly know me.
Once I was twen ty years old, my sto ry got told be fore the morn ing sun, when life was lone ly.
Once I was twen ty years old.
Soon I’ll be six ty years old.
Will I think the world is cold or will I have a lot of chil dren who can hold me?
Soon I’ll be six ty years old.
Once I was sev en years old, my ma ma told me, “Go make your self some friends or you’ll be lone ly.” Once I was sev en years old.
Once I was sev en years old.
