Sing along:
Ricky was a young boy, he had a heart of stone
Lived nine to five and he worked his, fingers to 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
repeat
Tequila in his heartbeat, his veins burned gasoline
It kept his motor running, but it never ever 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 to go
Your crime is time, and it's eighteen and life to go
repeat
Accidents will happen, they all heard Ricky say
He fired his sixshot to the wind, that child blew a child away
Eighteen and life Ricardo,
eighteen and life you know
Your crime is time and it's, eighteen and life to go
Eighteen and life in prison,
eighteen and life you know
Your crime is time, and it's eighteen and life to go
