[Charlie]
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

[Leondre]
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 maze
To make that steady figure

[Charlie]
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

[Leondre]
I always wanted to have that dream
Just like my mama before me
So I started writing songs,
I started writing stories
Something 'bout the glory
Just always seemed to bore me
Cause only the ones I really love
Will ever really know me

[Charlie]
Once I was twenty years old
My story got told
Before the morning sun
When life was lonely
Once I was twenty years old

[Leondre]
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 I know they're real my favour
And if we don't meet before I leave
I hope I'll see you later

[Charlie]
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 travelled around the world
And we're still roaming
Soon we'll be thirty years old

[Leondre]
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

[Charlie]
Soon I'll be sixty years old,
My daddy got sixty one
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 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 get yourself some friends
Or you'll be lonely,
Once I was seven years old

Once I was seven years old.
