Ricky was a young boy he had a heart of stone
Lived 9 to 5 and worked his fingers to the bone
Just barely out of school come from the edge of town
Fought like switchblade so no one could take him down
He had no money oooh no good at home
He walked the streets a soldier and he fought the world alone
And now it’s,
18 n life you got it
Eighteen and life you know
Your crime is time and it’s 18 and life to go
18 n life you got it, 18 and life you know
Your crime is time and it’s 18 and life to go ooooo
Tequila in his heartbeat his veins-burned gasoline
It kept his motor running, but is never kept him clean
They say he loved adventure- Ricky’s the wild one
He married trouble had a courtship with a gun
Bang-bang shoots emrup, the party never ends
You can’t think of dying when that bottle is your best friend
And now it’s,
Reff:
18 n life you got it
18 and life you know
Your crime is time and it’s 18 and life to go
18 n life you got it, 18 and life you know
Your crime is time and it’s 18 and life to go oooooooo
Accident will happen they all heard Ricky say
He find his six shot to the wind that child-blew a child away
(Back to reff)
