Once
I
____________________
(

seven
years
old
It
____________________
(
be
)
a
big
big
world
,
but
we
____________________
(
think
)
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
____________________
(
be
)
out
to
make
that
steady
figure
Once
I
____________________
(
be

eleven
years
old
,
my
daddy

(
tell
)
me
"
Go
get
yourself
a
wife
or
you'll
be
lonely
"
Once
I
____________________
(
be
)
eleven
years
old
I
always
____________________
(
have
)
that
dream
,
like
my
daddy
before
me
So
I
____________________
(
start
)
writing
songs
,
I
____________________
(
start
)
writing
stories
Something
about
that
glory
just
always
____________________
(
seem
)
to
bore
me
'Cause
only
those
I
really
love
will
ever
really
know
me
Once
I
____________________
(
be
)
twenty
years
old
,
my
story
____________________
(
get
)
told
(
tell
)
Before
the
morning
sun
,
when
life
was
lonely
Once
I
____________________
(
be
)
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
____________________
(
get
)
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
____________________
(

twenty
years
old

my
story
got

(
tell

I
was
writing
'bout
everything
I
____________________
(
see
)
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

behind
My
brother
,
I'm
still
sorry
Soon
I'll
be
sixty
years

,
my
daddy
got
sixty

one
Remember
life
,
and
then
your
life
becomes
a
better
one

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
?
