Ain’t No Rest for the Wicked Lyrics by DUUNES

2024

[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
