| [00:20.65] | Ricky was a young boy, he had a heart of stone |
| [00:26.33] | Lived 9 to 5 and he worked his fingers to the bone |
| [00:31.81] | Just barely get out of school, came from the edge of town |
| [00:37.07] | Fought like a switchblade so no one could take him down, oh no |
| [00:42.35] | He had no money, no, no good at home |
| [00:47.21] | He walked the streets as soldier and he fought the world alone |
| [00:53.10] | And now it's 18 and life, you got it, 18 and life, you know |
| [00:58.56] | Your crime is time and it's 18 and life to go |
| [01:03.62] | 18 and life, you got it, 18 and life, you know |
| [01:08.90] | Your crime is time and it's 18 and life to go |
| [01:24.71] | Tequila in his heartbeat, his veins burned gasoline |
| [01:30.19] | He kept his motor running, but it never kept him clean |
| [01:35.46] | They say he loved adventure, "Ricky's the wild one" |
| [01:40.74] | He married trouble and had a courtship with a gun |
| [01:46.01] | Bang bang shoot 'em up, the party never ends |
| [01:51.08] | You can't think of dying when the bottle's your best friend |
| [01:56.75] | And now it's 18 and life, you got it, 18 and life, you know |
| [02:02.03] | Your crime is time and it's 18 and life to go |
| [02:07.30] | 18 and life, you got it, 18 and life, you know |
| [02:12.58] | Your crime is time and it's 18 and life to go, yeah |
| [02:22.71] | "Accidents will happen", they all heard Ricky say |
| [02:27.99] | He fired his six-shot to the wind, that child blew a child away |
| [02:54.99] | 18 and life, you got it, 18 and life, you know |
| [03:00.66] | Your crime is time and it's 18 and life to go |
| [03:05.93] | 18 and life, you got it, 18 and life, you know |
| [03:11.00] | Your crime is time and it's 18 and life to go |
