"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"
