Ain't No Rest For The Wicked by Cage The Elephant
I was (1)______________ down the street
When out the corner of my eye
I saw a (2)____________ little thing approaching me
She said "I've never seen a man
Who (3)__________ so all alone
Could you use a (4)____________ company?
If you can pay the right price
Your evening will be nice
And you can go and send me on my way"
I (5)________ "You're (6)________ a sweet young thing
Why you do this to yourself?"
She (7)____________ at me and this is what she said:
"Oh, (8)__________ ain't no rest for the wicked
Money don't grow on trees
I got bills to pay
I got mouths to feed
There ain't nothing in this world for free
I (9)________ I can't slow down
I can't hold back
Though you know, I wish I could
Oh no, there ain't no rest for the wicked
Until we (10)__________ our eyes for good"
Not even fifteen (11)______________ later
I'm still walking down the street
When I saw the shadow of a man creep out of sight
And then he sweeped up from behind
He put a gun up to my head
He (12)________ it (13)__________ he wasn't looking for a fight
He (14)________ "Give me all you've got
I want your (15)__________ not your life
But if you try to make a move I won't think twice"
I go like "You can (16)________ my cash
But first you know I got to ask
What (17)________ you want to live this kind of life?"
He said "There ain't no rest for the wicked
Money don't grow on trees
I got bills to pay
I got (18)____________ to feed
There ain't nothing in this world for free
I know I can't slow down
I can't hold back
Though you know, I wish I could
Oh no, there ain't no rest for the wicked
Until we (19)__________ our (20)________ for good"
...
Now a couple (21)__________ have passed
And I was sitting at my house
The day was winding down and coming to an end
So I turned on the TV
And flipped it (22)________ to the news
And (23)________ I saw I almost couldn't comprehend
I saw a preacher man in cuffs
He'd taken money from the church
He stuffed his bank (24)______________ with (25)__________________ dollar bills
But even still I can't say much
Because I know we're all the same
Oh yes we all (26)________ out to satisfy those thrills
"You know there ain't no rest for the wicked
Money don't grow on trees
We got (27)__________ to pay
We got mouths to feed
There ain't nothing in this world for free
I know we can't slow down
We can't hold back
Though you know, we wish we could
Oh no there ain't no (28)________ for the wicked
Until we close our eyes for good"
