7 Years Old (Stuart MacDonald Remix) - Stuart MacDonald/Travis Atreo.mp3

[00:00.00]
[00:18.04]Once I was seven years old, my mama told me
[00:23.04]"Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely"
[00:26.79]Once I was seven years old
[00:29.88]
[00:35.84]It was a big big world, but we thought we were bigger
[00:40.28]Pushing each other to the limits, we were learning quicker
[00:44.78]By eleven smoking herb and drinking burning liquor
[00:49.09]Never rich so we were out to make that steady figure
[00:52.85]Once I was eleven years old, my daddy told me
[00:57.91]"Go get yourself a wife or you'll be lonely"
[01:01.48]Once I was eleven years old
[01:04.38]
[01:10.49]Once I was seven years old
[01:13.24]
[01:27.98]I always had that dream, like my daddy before me
[01:32.40]So I started writing songs, I started writing stories
[01:36.88]Something about that glory just always seemed to bore me
[01:41.26]'Cause only those I really love will ever really know me
[01:45.41]Once I was twenty years old, my story got told
[01:50.63]Before the morning sun, when life was lonely
[01:53.83]Once I was twenty years old
[01:57.71]
[02:03.09]I only see my goals, I don't believe in failure
[02:07.35]'Cause I know the smallest voices, they can make it major
[02:11.81]I got my boys with me, at least those in favor
[02:16.06]And if we don't meet before I leave, I hope I'll see you later
[02:20.15]Once I was twenty years old, my story got told
[02:24.89]I was writing 'bout everything I saw before me
[02:28.82]Once I was twenty years old
[02:31.72]
[02:37.50]Once I was seven years old
[02:40.24]
[02:53.80]Soon we'll be thirty years old, our songs have been sold
[02:58.98]We've traveled around the world and we're still roaming
[03:02.61]Soon we'll be thirty years old
[03:06.61]
[03:11.60]I'm still learning about life
[03:13.83]My woman brought children for me
[03:16.01]So I can sing them all my songs
[03:18.24]And I can tell them stories
[03:20.45]Most of my boys are with me
[03:22.34]Some are still out seeking glory
[03:24.74]And some I had to leave behind
[03:27.16]My brother, I'm still sorry
[03:29.00]Soon I'll be sixty years old, my daddy got sixty-one
[03:33.73]Remember life, and then your life becomes a better one
[03:37.79]I made a man so happy when I wrote a letter once
[03:42.06]I hope my children come and visit once or twice a month
[03:46.33]Soon I'll be sixty years old, will I think the world is cold
[03:51.00]Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me?
[03:54.87]Soon I'll be sixty years old
[03:58.29]
[04:03.54]Soon I'll be sixty years old, will I think the world is cold
[04:08.68]Or will I have a lot of children who can warm me?
[04:12.34]Soon I'll be sixty years old
[04:15.53]
[04:21.16]Once I was seven years old, my mama told me
[04:26.08]"Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely"
[04:29.91]Once I was seven years old
