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 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
