[Verse 1]
G A# I was Gwalkin' down the street
When out the A#corner of my eye
I saw Ca pretty little thing approaching A#me F
She said, "I Gnever seen a man
Who A#looked so all alone.
Oh, could Cyou use a little compaA#ny? F
And if you Gpay the right price
Your A#evening will be nice,
And Cyou can go and send me on my A#way." F
I said, "You're Gsuch a sweet young thing.
Why you A#do this to yourself?"
She Clooked at me and this is what she A#said, F
[Chorus]
"Oh, there Gain't no rest for the A#wicked. C
MoGney don't grow on trees.A# C I got Gbills to pay, I got A#mouths to feed,
C
And ain't Gnothing in this world for free.A# C Oh no, we Gcan't slow down, We A#can't hold back,
C
Though you Gknow I wish I A#could. C
Oh, no, there Gain't no rest for the A#wicked C
Until we Gclose our eyes for A#good." C
[Verse 2]
Not even Gfifteen minutes later
I'm still A#walkin' down the street
When I Csaw the shadow of a man creep out A#of sight F
And then he Gswept up from behind
He put a A#gun up to my head
He made Cit clear he wasn't lookin' for a A#fight. F
He said, G"Give me all you got.
I want your A#money not your life,
But if you Ctry to make a move I won't think A#twice." F
I told him, G"You can have my cash,
But first you A#know I gotta ask:
What Cmade you wanna live this kind of life?"
He said,
[Chorus]
There Gain't no rest for the A#wicked. C
MoGney don't grow on trees.A# C I got Gbills to pay, I got A#mouths to feed,
C
And ain't Gnothing in this world for free.A# C Oh no, I Gcan't slow down, I A#can't hold back,
C
Though you Gknow I wish I A#could. C
Oh, no, there Gain't no rest for the A#wicked C
Until we Gclose our eyes for A#good." C

G A# C G A# C G A# C
G A# C Well, now a Gcouple hours passed
[Verse 3]
And I was A#sitting in my house
The day Cwas winding down and coming to an A#end F
So I turnGed to the TV
And flipped it A#over to the news
And what CI saw I almost couldn't compreA#hend F
I saw a Gpreacher man in cuffs
He'd taken A#money from the church
He'd stufCfed his bank account with righteous dollar A#bills F
But even Gstill I can't say much
Because I A#know we're all the same
Oh, yes Cwe all seek out to satisfy those thrills
[Outro]
You know there Gain't no rest for the A#wicked. C
MoGney don't grow on trees.A# C I got Gbills to pay, I got A#mouths to feed,
C
And ain't Gnothing in this world for free.A# C Oh no, I Gcan't slow down, I A#can't hold back,
C
Though you Gknow I wish I A#could. C
Oh, no, there Gain't no rest for the A#wicked C
Until we Gclose our eyes for good."
