Ricky was a young boy He had a heart of stone Lived nine to five and worked his fingers to the bone
Just barely out of school Came from the edge of town Fought like a switchblade so no one could take him down
He had no money, oh No good at home He walked the streets a soldier And he fought the world alone and now it's
Eighteen and life you got it Eighteen and life you know Your crime is time and it's Eighteen and life to go Eighteen and life you got it Eighteen and life you know Your crime is time and it's Eighteen and life to go
Tequila in his heartbeat His veins burned gasoline It kept his motor runnin' But he never kept it clean
They say he loved adventure Ricky's the wild one He married trouble Had a courtship with a gun
Bang, bang, shoot 'em up The party never ends You can't think of dying when the bottle's your best friend And now it's
Eighteen and life you got it Eighteen and life you know Your crime is time and it's Eighteen and life to go Eighteen and life you got it Eighteen and life you know Your crime is time and it's Eighteen and life to go
Accidents will happen They all heard Ricky say He fired his six-shot to the wind That child blew a child away
Eighteen and life you got it Eighteen and life you know Your crime is time and it's Eighteen and life to go Eighteen and life you got it Eighteen and life you know Your crime is time and it's Eighteen and life to go, yeah Oh oh
