18 and life

[00:20.99] Ricky was a young boy, he had a heart of stone

[00:26.84] Lived 9 to 5 and he worked his fingers to the bone

[00:32.15] Just barely get out of school, came from the edge of town

[00:37.46] Fought like a switchblade so no one could take him down, oh no

[00:42.78] He had no money, oh, no good at home

[00:47.82] He walked the streets as soldier and he fought the world alone

[00:53.41] 18 and life, you got it, 18 and life, you know

[00:58.73] Your crime is time and it's 18 and life to go

[01:04.05] 18 and life, you got it, 18 and life, you know

[01:09.36] Your crime is time and it's 18 and life to go

[01:25.29] Tequila in his heartbeat, his veins burned gasoline

[01:30.60] He kept his motor running, but it never kept him clean

[01:35.91] They say he loved adventure, "Ricky's the wild one"

[01:41.24] He married trouble and had a courtship with a gun

[01:46.55] Bang bang, shoot 'em up, the party never ends

[01:51.60] You can't think of dying when the bottle's your best friend and now it's

[01:57.18] 18 and life, you got it, 18 and life, you know

[02:02.25] Your crime is time and it's 18 and life to go

[02:07.60] 18 and life, you got it, 18 and life, you know

[02:12.93] Your crime is time and it's 18 and life to go, ye-yeah

[02:23.60] "Accidents will happen", they all heard Ricky say

[02:28.65] He fired his six-shot to the wind, that child blew a child away

[02:55.43] 18 and life, you got it, 18 and life, you know

[03:00.75] Your crime is time and it's 18 and life to go

[03:06.07] 18 and life, you got it, 18 and life, you know

[03:11.37] Your crime is time and it's 18 and life to go
