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 |
| 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 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, 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 |
| Yeah, yeah |
| «Accidents will happen,» they all heard Ricky say |
| He fired his six-shot to the wind |
| And that child blew a child away, yeah, yeah |
| Hey, hey, yeah, yeah, yeah |
| 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 |
| Whoa, whoa, whoa |
