[Verse 1]
I was walking
down the stree
t,
When out the c
orner of my ey
e
I saw a pretty
little thing
approaching me
.
She said "I've
never seen a
man
Who looks so a
ll alone,
Could you use
a little compa
ny?
If you pay the
right price
Your evening w
ill be nice,
And you can go
and send me o
n my way."
I said "You're
such a sweet
young thing
Why you do thi
s to yourself?
"
She looked at
me and this is
what she said
,

"Oh, there ain
't no rest for
the wicked,
Money don't gr
ow on trees.
I got bills to
pay,
I got mouths t
o feed,
There ain't no
thing in this
world for free
.
I know I can't
slow down,
I can't hold b
ack,
Though you kno
w, I wish I co
uld.
No there ain't
no rest for t
he wicked,
Until we close
our eyes for
good".
[Verse 2]
Not even fifte
en minutes lat
er
I'm still walk
ing down the s
treet,
When I saw a s
hadow of a man
creep out of
sight.
Then he walks
up from behind
And puts a gun
up to my head
,
He made it cle
ar he wasn't l
ooking for a f
ight.
He said "Give
me all you've
got
I want your mo
ney not your l
ife,
But if you try
to make a mov
e I won't thin
k twice."
I said "You ca
n have my cash
But first you
know I got to
ask
What made you
want to live t
his kind of li
fe?"
[Chorus]
"Oh, there ain
't no rest for
the wicked,
Money don't gr
ow on trees.
I got bills to
pay,
I got mouths t
o feed,
There ain't no
thing in this
world for free
.
I know I can't
slow down,
I can't hold b
ack,
Though you kno
w, I wish I co
uld.
No there ain't
no rest for t
he wicked,
Until we close
our eyes for
good".
[Verse 3]
Now a couple h
ours passed
And I was sitt
ing at my hous
e,
The day was wi
nding down and
coming to an
end.
So I turned on
the TV
And flipped it
over to the n
ews,
And what I saw
I almost coul
dn't comprehen
d.
I saw a preach
er man in cuff
s he'd taken m
oney from the
church,
He's got this
bank account w
ith righteous
dollar bills.
But even still
I can't say m
uch
Because I know
we're all the
same,
Oh yes we've a
ll got to sati
sfy those thri
lls.
[Chorus]
"Oh, there ain
't no rest for
the wicked,
Money don't gr
ow on trees.
I got bills to
pay,
I got mouths t
o feed,
There ain't no
thing in this
world for free
.
I know I can't
slow down,
I can't hold b
ack,
Though you kno
w, I wish I co
uld.
No there ain't
no rest for t
he wicked,
Until we close
our eyes for
good
