18 & Life - Erik Grönwall

Ricky was a young boy he had a heart of stone

Lived 9 to 5 and he worked his fingers to the bone

Just barely at school came from the edge of town

Fought like a switchblade so no one could take him down oh no

He had no money no no good at home

He walked the streets as soldier and he fought the world alone

And now it's 18 and life you got it 18 and life you know

Your crime is time and it's 18 and life to go

18 and life you got it 18 and life you know

Your crime is time and it's 18 and life to go

Tequila in his heartbeat his veins burned gasoline

He 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 the bottle's your best friend

And now it's 18 and life you got it 18 and life you know

Your crime is time and it's 18 and life to go

18 and life you got it 18 and life you know

Your crime is time and it's 18 and life to go yeah

"Accidents will happen" they all heard Ricky say

He fired his six-shot to the wind that child blew a child away

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

18 and life you got it 18 and life you know

Your crime is time and it's 18 and life to go

18 and life you got it 18 and life you know

Your crime is time and it's 18 and life to go

18 and life you got it 18 and life to g
