Edge Of The World - Liftwalkers Remix

Lyrics

Once I was seven years old, my momma told me,
 Go make yourself some friends or you'll be lonely.
 Once I was seven years old.
 It was a big big world, but we thought we were bigger.
 Pushing each other to the limits, we won't learn them 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 favour,
 And if we don't see before I leave, I hope to see you later.
 Once I was 20 years old, my story got told
 I was writing about everything, I saw before me
 Once I was 20 years old.
 Soon we'll be 30 years old, our songs have been sold,
 We've traveled around the world and we're still rolling.
 Soon we'll be 30 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
 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 60 years old, will I think the world is cold?
 Or will I have a lot of children who can bore me
 Once I was seven years old
