Ricky was a young boy
He had a heart of stone
Lived 9 to 5 and worked
His fingers to the bone
Just barely got 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
18 and life
You got it
18 and life you know
Your crime is time and it
18 and life to go
18 and life
You got it
18 and life you know
Your crime is time and it
18 and life to go
Oh...
Tequila in his heartbeat
His veins burned gasoline
It kept his motor running
But it never kept him clean
They say he loved adventure
Ricky's the wild one
He married trouble and
Had a courtship with a gun
Bang bang shoot them up
The party never ends
You can think of dying
When the bottles your best friend
And now it
18 and life
You got it
18 and life you know
Your crime is time and it
18 and life to go
18 and life
You got it
18 and life you know
Your crime is time and it
18 and life to go
Accidents will happen
They all heard Ricky say
He fired his six-shot to the wind
That blew a child away
18 and life
You got it
18 and life you know
Your crime is time and it
18 and life to go
18 and life
You got it
18 and life you know
Your crime is time and it
18 and life to go
Yeah yeah
Oh...
