I was walkin' down the street
When out the corner of my eye
I saw a pretty little thing approaching me
She said, "I never seen a man who looked so all alone
Oh, 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"
You're such a sweet young thing, why you do this to yourself?
She looked at me and she said
No, no, there ain't no rest for the wicked
Money don't grow on trees
I got bills to pay
I got mouths to feed
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
No, there ain't no rest for the wicked
Until we close our eyes for good
Not even 15 minutes later
I'm still walkin' 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 lookin' for a fight
He said, "Give me all you 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 first you know I gotta ask
What made you wanna live this kind of life?"
And he said, "No, no, there ain't no rest for the wicked
Money don't grow on trees
I got bills to pay
I got mouths to feed
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
No, there ain't no rest for the wicked
Until we close our eyes for good
Well, now a couple hours passes
And I was sitting in my house
The day was winding down and coming to an end
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 stuff his band account with righteous dollar bills
But I can't say much
Because I know we're all the same
We all need to satisfy those thrills
And he said, "No, no, there ain't no rest for the wicked
Money don't grow on trees
I got bills to pay
I got mouths to feed
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
No, there ain't no rest for the wicked
Until we close our eyes for good
When out the corner of my eye
I saw a pretty little thing approaching me
She said, "I never seen a man who looked so all alone
Oh, 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"
You're such a sweet young thing, why you do this to yourself?
