[Verse 1] 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 Uh, could you use a little company?" And if you pay the right price Your evening will be nice And you can go and send me on my way I said, "You're such a sweet young thing Why'd you do this to yourself?" She looked at me and this is what she said [Chorus] "Oh, 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 I know I can't slow down And I can't hold back Though you know I wish I could Oh, no there ain't no rest for the wicked Until we close our eyes for good" [Verse 2] Not even 15 minutes later I'm still walking down the street When I saw the shadow of a man creep out of sight And then he swept up from behind He 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 And if you try to make a move, I won't think twice" I said, "You can have my cash But first you know I got to ask What made you want to live this kind of life?" [Chorus] 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 And no I can't slow down I can't hold back Though you know, I wish I could Oh, no there ain't no rest for the wicked Until we close our eyes for good" [Verse 3] Well, now a couple hours passed And I was sitting at 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'd taken money from the church He'd stuffed his bank account with righteous dollar bills But even still I can't say much Because I know we're all the same Oh yes, we all seek out to satisfy those thrills [Chorus] 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 There ain't nothing in this world for free I know I can't slow down I can't hold back, though you know, I wish I could Oh no, there ain't no rest for the wicked Until we close our eyes for good
