Cage The Elephant - Ain't No Rest For The Wicked
[00:21.50] I was walking down the street when out the corner of my eye
[00:24.27] I saw a pretty little thing approaching me
[00:27.28] She said, "I never seen a man, who looks so all alone
[00:30.24] And could you use a little company?
[00:33.01] If you can pay the right price, your evening will be nice
[00:36.23] But you can go and send me on my way"
[00:39.04] I said, "You're such a sweet young thing, why you do this to yourself?"
[00:42.27] She looked at me and this is what she said
[00:45.27] Oh there ain't no rest for the wicked
[00:48.29] Money don't grow on trees
[00:51.02] I got bills to pay, I got mouths to feed
[00:54.02] There ain't nothing in this world for free
[00:57.01] Oh no, I can't slow down, I can't hold back
[01:00.27] Though you know, I wish I could
[01:03.25] Oh no there ain't no rest for the wicked
[01:06.03] Until we close our eyes for good
[01:09.27] Not even fifteen minutes later after walking down the street
[01:12.27] When I saw the shadow of a man creep out out of sight
[01:15.27] And then he swept up from behind, he put a gun up to my head
[01:18.24] He made it clear he wasn't looking for a fight
[01:21.23] He said, "Give me all you've got, I want your money not your life
[01:24.29] But if you try to make a move I won't think twice"
[01:27.27] I told him, "You can have my cash, but first you know I gotta ask
[01:30.27] What made you want to live this kind of life?"
[01:33.26] He said
[01:33.88] Oh there ain't no rest for the wicked
[01:36.36] Money don't grow on trees
[01:39.10] I got bills to pay, I got mouths to feed
[01:42.10] There ain't nothing in this world for free
[01:45.14] Oh no, I can't slow down, I can't hold back
[01:48.36] Though you know, I wish I could
[01:51.09] Oh no there ain't no rest for the wicked
[01:54.13] Until we close our eyes for good
[02:09.36] Well now a couple hours past and I was sitting in my house
[02:12.14] The day was winding down and coming to an end
[02:15.39] And so I turned on the TV and flipped it over to the news
[02:18.10] And what I saw I almost couldn't comprehend
[02:21.35] I saw a preacher man in cuffs, he'd taken money from the church
[02:24.10] He'd stuffed his bank account with righteous dollar bills
[02:27.10] But even still I can't say much because I know we're all the same
[02:30.09] Oh yes we all seek out to satisfy those thrills
[02:33.15] Oh there ain't no rest for the wicked
[02:36.13] Money don't grow on trees
[02:39.13] We got bills to pay, we got mouths to feed
[02:42.04] There ain't nothing in this world for free
[02:45.03] Oh no we can't slow down, we can't hold back
[02:48.28] Though you know we wish we could
[02:51.28] Oh no there ain't no rest for the wicked
[02:54.53] Until we close our eyes for good
