Ain t No Rest For The Wicked by Cage The Elephant
[00:04.10] (He was a)
[00:06.59] (You know it)
[00:09.36] (He was a)
[00:12.60] I was walkin' down the street
[00:13.87] When out the corner of my eye
[00:15.86] I saw a pretty little thing approaching me
[00:18.61] She said, "I never seen a man
[00:20.10] Who looked so all alone
[00:22.08] Oh, could you use a little company?
[00:24.82] And if you pay the right price
[00:26.32] Your evening will be nice
[00:28.35] And you can go and send me on my way"
[00:31.07] I said, "You're such a sweet young thing
[00:33.84] Why you do this to yourself?"
[00:35.35] She looked at me and this is what she said
[00:37.10] "Oh, there ain't no rest for the wicked
[00:40.36] Money don't grow on trees
[00:43.10] I got bills to pay
[00:44.85] I got mouths to feed
[00:46.38] And ain't nothing in this world for free
[00:49.60] Oh no, I can't slow down
[00:50.85] I can't hold back
[00:52.35] Though you know I wish I could
[00:55.58] Oh, no, there ain't no rest for the wicked
[00:58.85] Until we close our eyes for good"
[01:01.59] Not even 15 minutes later
[01:03.10] I'm still walkin' down the street
[01:04.83] When I saw the shadow of a man creep out of sight
[01:07.82] And then he swept up from behind
[01:09.57] He put a gun up to my head
[01:11.07] He made it clear he wasn't lookin' for a fight
[01:13.87] He said, "Give me all you got
[01:15.59] I want your money not your life
[01:17.33] But if you try to make a move I won't think twice"
[01:19.86] I told him, "You can have my cash
[01:21.85] But first you know I gotta ask
[01:24.11] What made you wanna live this kind of life?"
[01:26.59] He said
[01:27.84] "There ain't no rest for the wicked
[01:29.34] Money don't grow on trees
[01:33.35] I got bills to pay
[01:34.11] I got mouths to feed
[01:35.59] And ain't nothing in this world for free
[01:38.85] No, I can't slow down
[01:40.33] I can't hold back
[01:41.83] Though you know I wish I could
[01:44.85] Oh, no, there ain't no rest for the wicked
[01:47.60] Until we close our eyes for good"
[02:03.60] Well, now a couple hours passed
[02:04.85] And I was sitting in my house
[02:07.35] The day was winding down and coming to an end
[02:09.60] So I turned to the TV
[02:11.35] And flipped it over to the news
[02:13.11] And what I saw I almost couldn't comprehend
[02:15.58] I saw a preacher man in cuffs
[02:17.08] He'd taken money from the church
[02:18.85] He'd stuffed his bank account with righteous dollar bills
[02:21.84] But even still I can't say much
[02:23.10] Because I know we're all the same
[02:24.58] Oh, yes we all seek out to satisfy those thrills
[02:27.86] You know there ain't no rest for the wicked
[02:31.08] Money don't grow on trees
[02:33.85] We got bills to pay
[02:35.60] We got mouths to feed
[02:37.10] And ain't nothing in this world for free
[02:40.11] No we can't slow down
[02:41.85] We can't hold back
[02:43.35] Though you know we wish we could
[02:46.60] No there ain't no rest for the wicked
[02:49.35] Until we close our eyes for good
