Ricky was a young boy;
He had a heart of gold
Lived nine-to-five and worked his
Fingers right to the bone
Just barely out of school,
Ricky - he came from the edge of town
Walked with a switchblade
So no one could take him down, no.
He had no money, oh!
(No good at home)
Walked the streets a soldier
And he fought the world alone,
And now he's:
Eighteen and life you got it
Eighteen and life, you know?
Your crime this time and it's-
Eighteen and life to go?
Eighteen and life you've got it
Eighteen and life, you know?
Your crime this time and it's-
Eighteen and life to go...
Tequila in his heartbeat
His veins burned gasoline
It kept his motor runnin'
But he would've never expected
It would've kept him clean
They say Ricky loved adventure;
Ricky is the wild one
He married trouble;
With a courtship and a gun
He had a heart of gold
Lived nine-to-five and worked his
Fingers right to the bone
Just barely out of school,
Ricky - he came from the edge of town
Walked with a switchblade
So no one could take him down, no.
He had no money, oh!
(No good at home)
Walked the streets a soldier
And he fought the world alone,
And now he's:
Eighteen and life you got it
Eighteen and life, you know?
Your crime this time and it's-
Eighteen and life to go?
Eighteen and life you've got it
Eighteen and life, you know?
Your crime this time and it's-
Eighteen and life to go...
Tequila in his heartbeat
His veins burned gasoline
It kept his motor runnin'
But he would've never expected
It would've kept him clean
They say Ricky loved adventure;
Ricky is the wild one
He married trouble;
With a courtship and a gun
Bang, bang! Shoot 'em up
the battle never ends
You can't think of dying-
When the bottle
is your best friend
And now he's-
Eighteen and life, you got it
Eighteen and life, you know?
Your crime this time; and it's-
Eighteen and life to go!
Eighteen and life you've got it
Eighteen and life, you know?
Your crime this time; and it's
Eighteen and life to go
"Accidents will happen"
They all heard Ricky say
He fired his six-shots -- into the wind;
That child blew a child away
Eighteen and life you've got it
Eighteen and life, you know?
Your crime this time, and it's-
Eighteen and life to go?
Eighteen and life you've got it-
Eighteen and life, you know?
Your crime this time and it's
Eighteen and life to go
the battle never ends
You can't think of dying-
When the bottle
is your best friend
And now he's-
Eighteen and life, you got it
Eighteen and life, you know?
Your crime this time; and it's-
Eighteen and life to go!
Eighteen and life you've got it
Eighteen and life, you know?
Your crime this time; and it's
Eighteen and life to go
"Accidents will happen"
They all heard Ricky say
He fired his six-shots -- into the wind;
That child blew a child away
Eighteen and life you've got it
Eighteen and life, you know?
Your crime this time, and it's-
Eighteen and life to go?
Eighteen and life you've got it-
Eighteen and life, you know?
Your crime this time and it's
Eighteen and life to go
