Ricky was a young boy, he had a heart of stone. Lived 9 to 5 and 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. He had no money, ooh, no good at home. He 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 that bottle's your best friend. And now it's.... (Chorus) "Accidents will happen", they all heard Ricky say. He fired his six-shot to the wind, that child blew a child away. (Chorus)
