[00:03.50]
[00:19.10]I was walking down the street
[00:20.15]When out the corner of my eye
[00:21.96]I saw a pretty little thing approaching me
[00:23.51]
[00:24.64]She said I never seen a man
[00:25.89]Who looks so all alone
[00:27.14]Could you use a little company
[00:29.20]
[00:30.88]If you could pay the right price
[00:32.56]Your evening will be nice
[00:33.87]Or you can go and send me on my way
[00:35.68]
[00:36.50]I said you're such a sweet young thing
[00:37.99]Why'd you do this to yourself
[00:39.88]She looked at me and this is what she said
[00:41.81]
[00:42.62]Oh there ain't no rest for the wicked
[00:44.50]
[00:45.68]Money don't grow on trees
[00:46.99]
[00:48.43]I got bills to pay
[00:49.74]I got mouths to feed
[00:51.73]There ain't nothing in this world for free
[00:53.17]
[00:54.29]I know I can't slow down
[00:55.79]I can't hold back
[00:56.79]
[00:57.54]Though you know I wish I could
[00:59.10]
[01:00.35]Oh no there ain't no rest for the wicked
[01:02.42]
[01:03.54]Until we close our eyes for good
[01:05.10]
[01:06.35]Not even 15 minutes later
[01:07.78]I'm still walking down the street
[01:08.91]
[01:09.47]When I saw the shadow of a man creep out of sight
[01:12.22]And then he swept up from behind
[01:13.53]Put a gun up to my head
[01:15.40]He made it clear he wasn't looking for a fight
[01:17.33]
[01:18.21]He said give me all you've got
[01:19.58]I want your money not your life
[01:21.33]If you try to make a move I won't think twice
[01:23.51]
[01:24.14]I told him you can have my cash
[01:25.70]But first you know I've got to ask
[01:26.71]
[01:30.83]What made you want to live this kind of life
[01:33.28]
[01:34.22]He said there ain't no rest for the wicked
[01:35.46]Money don't grow on trees
[01:36.52]I got bills to pay
[01:37.40]I got mouths to feed
[01:38.40]Ain't nothing in this world for free
[01:41.20]
[01:42.14]I know I can't slow down
[01:43.70]I can't hold back
[01:44.76]
[01:45.57]Though you know I wish I could
[01:47.32]
[01:48.51]Oh no there ain't no rest for the wicked
[01:50.30]
[01:51.67]Until we close our eyes for good
[01:53.30]
[02:06.66]Now a couple hours past
[02:07.84]And I was sitting in my house
[02:09.58]The day was winding down and coming to an end
[02:11.66]
[02:12.47]So I turned on the TV
[02:13.66]And flipped it over to the news
[02:14.97]And what I saw I almost couldn't comprehend
[02:16.21]
[02:18.78]I saw a preacher man in cuffs
[02:20.28]Taking money from the church
[02:21.22]He stuffed his bank account with righteous dollar bills
[02:22.26]
[02:24.25]But even still I can't say much
[02:25.56]Because I know we're all the same
[02:27.19]Oh yes we all seek out to satisfy those thrills
[02:28.27]
[02:30.39]You know there ain't no rest for the wicked
[02:32.41]
[02:33.60]Money don't grow on trees
[02:34.90]
[02:36.28]We got bills to pay
[02:37.52]We got mouths to feed
[02:39.02]Ain't nothing in this world for free
[02:41.71]Oh no
[02:42.83]We can't slow down
[02:43.58]We can't hold back
[02:44.64]Though you know we wish we could
[02:46.45]You know there ain't no rest for the wicked
[02:50.93]
[02:51.49]Until we close our eyes for good
