Lyrics Ain't No Rest for the Wicked

Well I was walking down the street when out the corner of my eye
I saw a pretty little thing approaching me
She said I've never seen a man who looks so all alone
Well could you use a little company?
Well If you pay the right price your evening could be nice or you can go and send me on my way
I said your such a sweet young thing oh why you do this to yourself?
She looked at me and this is what she said
She said there ain't no rest for the wicked money don't grow on trees
I got bills to pay
I got mouths to feed
And there ain't nothing in this world for free
No I can't slow down
I can't hold back
Though you know
I wish I could
Because there ain't no rest for the wicked
Until we close our eyes for good
Fifteen minutes later after walking down the street
I saw the shadow of a man creep out of sight
And then he swept up from behind put a gun up to my head
He made it clear he wasn't looking for a fight
He said give me all you've got
I want your money not your life
But If you try to make a move
I won't think twice
I told him you can have my cash
But know you know
I've got to ask
What made you want to live this kind of life?
He said there ain't no rest for the wicked money don't grow on trees
I got bills to pay
I got mouths to feed
There ain't nothing in this world for free
No I can't slow down
I can't hold back
Though you know
I wish I could
You know there ain't no rest for the wicked
Until we close our eyes for good
Well now a couple hours pass and I was sitting in my house
The day was winding down and coming to an end
And so I turned on the TV and flipped it over to the news
And what I saw I almost couldn't comprehend
I saw a preacher man in cuffs he's taking money from the church
He had a bank account with righteous dollar bills
But even still I can't say much 'cos I know we're all the same
Oh yeah we all seek out to satisfy those thrills
You know there ain't no rest for the wicked money don't grow on trees
I got bills to pay
I got mouths to feed
And there ain't nothing in this world for free
No I can't slow down
I can't hold back
Though you know
I wish I could
You know there ain't no rest for the wicked
Until we close our eyes for good
You know there ain't no rest for the wicked
Until we close our eyes for good
For good
