G
I was walking down the street,
A#
When out the corner of my eye
C A# F
I saw a pretty little thing approaching me.
G
She said "I' ve never seen a man
A#
Who looks so all alone,
C A# F
Could you use a little company?
G
If you pay the right price
A#
Your evening will be nice,
C A# F
And you can go and send me on my way."
G
I said "You' re such a sweet young thing
A#
Why you do this to yourself?"
C A# F
She looked at me and this is what she said,
G A# C F
"Oh, there ain' t no rest for the wicked,
G A# C F
Money don' t grow on trees.
G
I got bills to pay,
A# C F
I got mouths to feed,
G A# C F
There ain' t nothing in this world for free.
G
I know I can' t slow down,
A# C F
I can' t hold back,
G A# C F
Though you know, I wish I could.
G A# C F
No there ain' t no rest for the wicked,
G A# C F
Until we close our eyes for good".
G
Not even fifteen minutes later
A#
I' m still walking down the street,
C A# F
When I saw a shadow of a man creep out of sight.
G
Then he walks up from behind
A#
And puts a gun up to my head,
C A# F
He made it clear he wasn' t looking for a fight.
G
He said "Give me all you' ve got
A#
I want your money not your life,
C A# F
But if you try to make a move I won' t think twice."
G
I said "You can have my cash
A#
But first you know I got to ask
C A# F
What made you want to live this kind of life?"
G A# C F
He said "There ain' t no rest for the wicked,
G A# C F
Money don' t grow on trees.
G
I got bills to pay,
A# C F
I got mouths to feed,
G A# C F
There ain' t nothing in this world for free.
G
I know I can' t slow down,
A# C F
I can' t hold back,
G A# C F
Though you know, I wish I could.
G A# C F
No there ain' t no rest for the wicked,
G A# C F
Until we close our eyes for good".
G
Now a couple hours passed
A#
And I was sitting at my house,
C A# F
The day was winding down and coming to an end.
G
So I turned on the TV
A#
And flipped it over to the news,
C A# F
And what I saw I almost couldn' t comprehend.
G A#
I saw a preacher man in cuffs, he' d taken money from the church,
C A# F
He' d stuffed his bank account with righteous dollar bills.
G
But even still I can' t say much
A#
Because I know we' re all the same,
C A# F
Oh yes we all seek out to satisfy those thrills.
G A# C F
"Oh, there ain' t no rest for the wicked,
G A# C F
Money don' t grow on trees.
G
I got bills to pay,
A# C F
I got mouths to feed,
G A# C F
There ain' t nothing in this world for free.
G
Oh no we can' t slow down,
A# C F
We can' t hold back,
G A# C F
Though you know, we wish we could.
G A# C F
No there ain' t no rest for the wicked,
G A# C F
Until we close our eyes for good".
