Cage The Elephant - Ain't No Rest For The Wicked(2008)

[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]
