[al:Ain't No Rest For The Wicked]
[00:12.10]I was walking down the street when out the corner of my eye
[00:15.27]I saw a pretty little thing approaching me
[00:18.07]She said i never seen a man who looks so all alone
[00:21.40]Could you use a little company
[00:24.16]If you pay the right price
[00:26.23]Your evening will be nice
[00:27.48]Or you can go and send me on my way
[00:30.41]I said your such a sweet young thing
[00:32.21]Why'd you do this to yourself
[00:33.77]She looked at me and this is what she said
[00:36.74]There ain't no rest for the wicked
[00:39.91]Money don't grow on trees
[00:42.73]I got bills to pay
[00:44.10]I got mouths to feed
[00:45.63]There ain't nothing in this world for free
[00:48.69]I know i can't slow down
[00:50.65]I can't hold back though you know i wish i could
[00:54.79]Oh no there ain't no rest for the wicked
[00:57.94]Until we close our eyes for good
[01:01.02]Not even 15 minutes later after walking down the street
[01:04.19]When i saw the shadow of a man creep out of sight
[01:07.06]And then he swept up from behind
[01:08.72]Put a gun up to my head
[01:10.22]He made it clear he wasn't looking for a fight
[01:13.16]He said give me all you've got
[01:15.04]I want your money not your life
[01:16.44]But if you try to make a move i won't think twice
[01:19.31]I told him you can have my cash
[01:20.92]But first you know i've got to ask
[01:22.38]What made you want to live this kind of life
[01:25.40]He said
[01:25.96]There ain't no rest for the wicked
[01:28.77]Money don't grow on trees
[01:31.54]I got bills to pay
[01:33.15]I got mouths to feed
[01:34.66]There ain't nothing in this world for free
[01:37.57]I know i can't slow down
[01:40.00]I can't hold back though you know i wish i could
[01:44.17]Oh no there ain't no rest for the wicked
[01:47.34]Until we close our eyes for good
[01:50.18]
[02:02.86]And now a couple hours past
[02:04.26]And i was sitting in my house
[02:05.64]The day was winding down and coming to an end
[02:08.76]So i turned on the TV
[02:10.42]And flipped it over to the news
[02:11.83]And what i saw i almost couldn't comprehend
[02:14.89]I saw a preacher man in cuffs taking money from the church
[02:17.90]He stuffed his bank account with righteous dollar bills
[02:21.01]But even still i can't say much cause i know were all the same
[02:24.03]Oh yes we all seek out to satisfy those thrills
[02:27.10]You know there ain't no rest for the wicked
[02:30.39]Money don't grow on trees
[02:33.26]We got bills to pay
[02:34.76]We got mouths to feed
[02:36.26]There ain't nothing in this world for free
[02:39.38]I know we can't slow down
[02:41.28]We can't hold back though you know we wish we could
[02:45.47]Oh no there ain't no rest for the wicked
[02:48.59]Until we close our eyes for good.
