Skid Row is an American heavy metal band which became the hair metal prototypes of the late 1980s metal scene and were reasonably successful until they were eclipsed by the Seattle grunge bands in 1991.
Skid Row has released five full-length albums, an EP, a compilation album and a live recording. Their first two albums, Skid Row (1989) and Slave to the Grind (1991), are considered the band's best known works to date. Their last full-length album, Revolutions Per Minute, came out on October 24, 2006.
Ricky was a young boy, He had a heart of stone.
Lived 9 to 5 and worked his fingers to the bone.
Just barely got out of school, came from the edge of town.
Fought like a switchblade so no one could take him down.
He had no money, oooh no good at home.
He walked the streets a 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
(repeat above)
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 and 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
chorus
"Accidents will happen" they all heard Ricky say
He fired his six-shot to the wind that blew a child away.
