18 & LIFE - Skid Row
Ricky was a young boy, he had a heart of stone
Lived nine to five 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 to go
Your crime is time when it's
Eightteen and life to go
Eighteen and life you got it
Eighteen and life to go
Your crime is time when it's
Eighteen and life to go
..whoa
Tequilla in his heartbeat, his veins burned gasoline
It kept his motor runnin', but it never kept him clean
They said he loved adventure, Ricky's the wild one
He married trouble, had a courtship with a gun, oh
Bang bang, shoot em up, the party never ends
You can't think of dyin' when the bottle's your best friend
...and now it
Eighteen and life you got it
Eighteen and life to go
Your crime is time when it's
Eightteen and life to go
Eighteen and life you got it
Eighteen and life to go
Your crime is time when it's
Eighteen and life to go
...Yeah
Accidents will happen, they all heard Ricky say
He fired his six shots into the wind, a child, blew a child away
(Solo)
Eighteen and life you got it
Eighteen and life to go
Your crime is time when it's
Eighteen and life to go
Eighteen and life you got it
Eighteen and life to go
Your crime is time when it's
Eighteen and life to go
