[ti:aint no rest for the wicked]
[ar:Cage The Elephant]
[00:12.01]i  was  walking  down  the  street,
[00:13.63]When  out  the  corner  of  my  eye
[00:15.57]I  saw  a  pretty  little  thing  approaching  me.
[00:17.95]She  said "I've  never  seen  a  man
[00:19.76]Who  looks  so  all  alone,
[00:20.85]Could  you  use  a  little  company?
[00:23.68]If  you  can  pay  the  right  price
[00:25.56]Your  evening  will  be  nice,
[00:27.06]And  you  can  go  and  send  me  on  my  way."
[00:29.93]I  said "You're  such  a  sweet  young  thing
[00:32.00]Why  you  do  this  to  yourself?"
[00:33.56]She  looked  at  me  and  this  is  what  she  said:
[00:37.31]"Oh,there  ain't  no  rest  for  the  wicked,
[00:40.47]Money  don't  grow  on  trees.
[00:42.28]I  got  bills  to  pay,
[00:43.78]I  got  mouths  to  feed,
[00:45.22]There  ain't  nothing  in  this  world  for  free.
[00:47.84]I  know  I  can't  slow  down,
[00:49.59]I  can't  hold  back,
[00:51.78]Though  you  know,I  wish  I  could.
[00:54.59]No  there  ain't  no  rest  for  the  wicked,
[00:57.65]Until  we  close  our  eyes  for  good".
[01:00.78]Not  even  fifteen  minutes  later
[01:02.47]I'm  still  walking  down  the  street,
[01:04.09]When  I  saw  a  shadow  of  a  man  creep  out  of  sight.
[01:07.53]And  then  he  sweeps  up  from  behind
[01:09.22]And  puts  a  gun  up  to  my  head,
[01:10.65]He  made  it  clear  he  wasn't  looking  for  a  fight.
[01:12.91]He  said "Give  me  all  you've  got
[01:14.65]I  want  your  money  not  your  life,
[01:16.15]But  if  you  try  to  make  a  move  I  won't  think  twice."
[01:19.03]I  go  like "You  can  have  my  cash
[01:20.96]But  first  you  know  I  got  to  ask
[01:23.28]What  made  you  want  to  live  this  kind  of  life?"
[01:25.65]He  said "There  ain't  no  rest  for  the  wicked,
[01:29.03]Money  don't  grow  on  trees.
[01:30.84]I  got  bills  to  pay,
[01:32.53]I  got  mouths  to  feed,
[01:34.53]There  ain't  nothing  in  this  world  for  free.
[01:37.28]I  know  I  can't  slow  down,
[01:39.09]I  can't  hold  back,
[01:40.65]Though  you  know,I  wish  I  could.
[01:43.65]No  there  ain't  no  rest  for  the  wicked,
[01:46.72]Until  we  close  our  eyes  for  good".
[02:02.73]Now  a  couple  hours  have  passed
[02:04.47]And  I  was  sitting  at  my  house,
[02:05.27]The  day  was  winding  down  and  coming  to  an  end.
[02:08.01]So  I  turned  on  the  TV
[02:09.95]And  flipped  it  over  to  the  news,
[02:11.58]And  what  I  saw  I  almost  couldn't  comprehend.
[02:13.01]I  saw  a  preacher  man  in  cuffs  he'd  taken  money  from  the  church,
[02:16.76]He  stuffed  his  bank  account  with  righteous  dollar  bills.
[02:20.61]But  even  still  I  can't  say  much
[02:22.36]Because  I  know  we're  all  the  same,
[02:24.05]oh  yes  we  all  seek  out  to  satisfy  those  thrills
[02:27.01]"Oh,there  ain't  no  rest  for  the  wicked,
[02:30.57]Money  don't  grow  on  trees.
[02:32.88]We  got  bills  to  pay,
[02:34.64]We  got  mouths  to  feed,
[02:36.01]There  ain't  nothing  in  this  world  for  free.
[02:38.95]I  know  we  can't  slow  down,
[02:40.95]We  can't  hold  back,
[02:42.57]Though  you  know,we  wish  we  could.
[02:45.26]No  there  ain't  no  rest  for  the  wicked,
[02:47.95]Until  we  close  our  eyes  for  good"
