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
Sanderlei Silveira - 25/06/2023 - SA X
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
[Verse 1]
It was a big, big world, but 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
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
Once, I was twenty years old, my story got told
Before the morning sun, when life was lonely
Once, I was twenty years old (Lukas Graham!)
[Verse 3]
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
[Chorus]
Once, I was twenty years old, my story got told
I was writing 'bout everything I saw before me
Once, I was twenty years old
[Bridge]
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
[Verse 4]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Breakdown]
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 hold me?
Soon, I'll be sixty years old
[Chorus]
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
曾经，我七岁，妈妈告诉我
去找自己一些朋友，否则你会很孤单
曾经，我七岁
[第1节]
那是一个大世界，但我们认为我们更大
互相推动限制，我们正在更快学习
到11，吸烟和喝燃烧的酒
从来没有富裕，所以我们出去做那个稳定的数字
[合唱]
曾经，我十一岁，我的爸爸告诉我
去给自己一个妻子，否则你会很孤单
曾经，我十一岁
[第2节]
我总是像我之前的爸爸那样做那个梦
所以我开始写歌，开始写故事
关于那个荣耀的事情似乎总是让我感到无聊
因为只有我真正爱的人会真正认识我
[合唱]
曾经，我二十岁，我的故事得到了讲述
早晨的阳光前，生活很寂寞
有一次，我二十岁（卢卡斯·格雷厄姆！）
[第3节]
我只看到我的目标，我不相信失败
因为我知道最小的声音，所以他们可以使它成为主要的声音
我和我的男孩们在一起，至少那些喜欢的人
如果我们离开前我们没有见面，希望我以后再见
[合唱]
曾经，我二十岁，我的故事得到了讲述
我在写“我在我面前看到的一切
曾经，我二十岁
[桥]
很快，我们已经三十岁了，我们的歌已出售
我们已经环游世界，我们仍在漫游
很快，我们已经三十岁了
[第4节]
我仍在学习生活，我的女人为我带来了孩子
这样我就可以唱歌我的所有歌曲，我可以告诉他们故事
我的大多数男孩都和我在一起，有些人仍在寻找荣耀
我的兄弟，我不得不留下来，我仍然很抱歉
[合唱]
很快，我会六十岁，爸爸有六十一
记住生活，然后你的生活变得更好
当我写一封信时，我让一个男人很高兴
我希望我的孩子每月一次或两次
[分解]
很快，我会六十岁，我认为世界很冷吗？
还是我会有很多可以温暖我的孩子？
很快，我会六十岁
很快，我会六十岁，我认为世界很冷吗？
还是我会有很多孩子可以抱住我？
很快，我会六十岁
[合唱]
曾经，我七岁，妈妈告诉我
去找自己一些朋友，否则你会很孤单
我七岁
我七岁
