18 And Life

Ricky was a young boy, he had a heart of stone
Lived nine-to-five, and he 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, no

He had no money, no, no good at home
Walked the streets a soldier
And he fought the world alone, and now it's

18 and life, you got it
18 and life, you know
Your crime is time
And it's 18 and life to go

18 and life, you got it
18 and life, you know
Your crime is time
And it's 18 and life to go, oh-whoa-oh, oh
Yes

Tequila in his heartbeat, his veins full of 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, had a courtship with a gun

Bang-bang, shoot 'em up
But the party never ends
You can't think of dying
When the bottle's your best friend, and now it's

18 and life, you got it
18 and life, you know
Your crime is time
And it's 18 and life to go

18 and life, you got it
18 and life, you know
Your crime is time
And it's 18 and life to go, yeah-yeah

"Accidents will happen"
They all heard Ricky say
He fired his six shots in the wind
That child, blew a child away, yeah-yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah

18 and life, you got it
18 and life, you know
Your crime is time
And it's 18 and life to go

18 and life, you got it
18 and life, you know
Your crime is time
And it's 18 and life to go, yeah-hey

Yeah, yeah-yeah
Whoa, whoa-oh, whoa-oh-oh
