Ain't No Rest For The Wicked

I was walking 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 did you do this to yourself?
She looked at me and she said

[Chorus:]
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
And 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 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 got
I want your money not your life
But if you try to make a move I won't think twice
I said take my cash
But first I gotta ask
What made you live this kind of life?
And he said

[Chorus]

Well now a couple hours passed
And I was sitting in my house
The day was winding down and coming to an end
So I turned to 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
Taken money from the church
Stuffed his bank 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

[Chorus]
