Cage The Elephant - Ain't No Rest For The Wicked

[00:02.45] He was a- [00:05.54] Ya know it [00:08.65] He was a- [00:11.97] I was walking down the street [00:13.17] When out the corner of my eye [00:14.94] I saw a pretty little thing approaching me [00:17.97] She said, I've never seen a man [00:19.77] Who looks so all alone [00:21.08] Uh, could you use a little company? [00:24.03] If you pay the right price [00:25.93] Your evening will be nice [00:27.28] And you can go and send me on my way [00:30.26] I said, "You're such a sweet young thing [00:31.92] Why'd you do this to yourself?" [00:33.57] She looked at me and this is what she said [00:36.52] "Oh, there ain't no rest for the wicked [00:39.76] Money don't grow on trees [00:42.30] I got bills to pay [00:44.17] I got mouths to feed [00:45.73] There ain't nothing in this world for free [00:48.66] I know I can't slow down [00:50.56] I can't hold back [00:51.91] Though you know [00:52.99] I wish I could [00:54.83] Oh, no there ain't no rest for the wicked [00:57.82] Until we close our eyes for good" [01:01.07] Not even 15 minutes later [01:02.72] I'm still walking down the street [01:04.13] When I saw the shadow of a man creep out of sight [01:07.24] And then he swept up from behind [01:08.74] He put a gun up to my head [01:10.30] He made it clear he wasn't looking for a fight [01:13.29] He said, "Give me all you've got [01:14.89] I want your money not your life [01:16.46] But if you try to make a move, I won't think twice" [01:19.46] I told him, "You can have my cash [01:20.93] But first you know I got to ask [01:22.54] What made you want to live this kind of life?" [01:25.54] He said, "There ain't no rest for the wicked [01:28.62] Money don't grow on trees [01:31.67] I got bills to pay [01:33.18] I got mouths to feed [01:34.70] There ain't nothing in this world for free [01:37.84] I know I can't slow down [01:39.60] I can't hold back [01:40.97] Though you know, I wish I could [01:44.06] Oh no there ain't no rest for the wicked [01:47.07] Until we close our eyes for good" [01:49.77] Yeah [01:50.83] You know it [01:53.10] He was a- [01:56.13] You know it [01:59.10] He was a- [02:02.32] Well, now a couple hours passed [02:04.03] And I was sitting at my house [02:05.54] The day was winding down and coming to an end [02:08.54] And so I turned on the TV [02:10.12] And flipped it over to the news [02:11.76] And what I saw I almost couldn't comprehend [02:14.78] I saw a preacher man in cuffs [02:16.46] He'd taken money from the church [02:17.79] He'd stuffed his bank account with righteous dollar bills [02:20.98] But even still I can't say much [02:22.45] Because I know we're all the same [02:24.08] Oh yes, we all seek out to satisfy those thrills [02:27.24] You know there ain't no rest for the wicked [02:30.32] Money don't grow on trees [02:33.12] We got bills to pay [02:34.58] We got mouths to feed [02:36.27] There ain't nothing in this world for free [02:39.54] I know we can't slow down [02:41.47] We can't hold back, though you know, we wish we could [02:45.45] Oh no, there ain't no rest for the wicked [02:48.74] Until we close our eyes for good [02:51.04]
