[Verse 1]
I was walkGing down the street,
When out the coBbrner of my eye
I saw a prCetty little thing apBbproachinFg me.
She said "I've nGever seen a man
Who loBboks so all alone,
Could you usCe a little BbcompanFy?
If you pGay the right price
Your evBbening will be nice,
And you can Cgo and send me on Bbmy way.F"
I said "You're suGch a sweet young thing
Why you Bbdo this to yourself?"
She loCoked at me and tBbhis is what she saFid,
[Chorus]

"GOh, there ain't no rest for the wiBbckeCd,F

[Verse 2]
Not even fGifteen minutes later
I'm still walkiBbng down the street,
When I sawC a shadow of a man cBbreep outF of sight.
Then he wGalks up from behind
And puts a gBbun up to my head,
He made Cit clear he wasn't loBboking for aF fight.
He said "GGive me all you've got
I want your moBbney not your life,
But if you Ctry to make a move I won't thBbink twicFe."
I said "YGou can have my cash
But first you knBbow I got to ask
What made you Cwant to live this kind ofBb life?"F
[Chorus]
"GOh, there ain't no rest for the wiBbckeCd,F
MGoney don't grow on BbtreCesF.
I gGot bills to pay,
I got mBboutChsF to feed,
There ain't nGothing in this world forBb frCeeF.
I know I Gcan't slow down,
I cBban'Ct Fhold back,
Though you kGnow, I wish I couldBb. C F
No there aGin't no rest for the wiBbckeCd,F
Until we Gclose our eyes for goBbod"C. F
[Verse 3]
Now a coGuple hours passed
And I was sitBbting at my house,
The day was windiCng down and comBbing to an enFd.
So I tuGrned on the TV
And flipped it oBbver to the news,
And what IC saw I almost coBbuldn't comprFehend.
I saw a pGreacher man in cuffs he'd taken mBboney from the church,
He's got this Cbank account with riBbghteous dollar bFills.
But even stiGll I can't say much
Because I kBbnow we're all the same,
Oh yes we've aCll got to satBbisfy those thrFills.
[Chorus]
"GOh, there ain't no rest for the wiBbckeCd,F
MGoney don't grow on BbtreCesF.
I gGot bills to pay,
I got mBboutChsF to feed,
There ain't nGothing in this world forBb frCeeF.
I know I Gcan't slow down,
I cBban'Ct Fhold back,
Though you kGnow, I wish I couldBb. C F
No there aGin't no rest for the wiBbckeCd,F
Until we Gclose our eyes for good
