Iris, Donnie - No Rest For The Wicked Lyrics






I wear an “A” on my chest
And it won’t rub off
I’ve been beating my breast
But it won’t come off
I work all night in a smoky club
Spend all day eating wheat flag sludge

I really need to get some sleep
I really need to have some peace
I really need to get relief

No rest for the wicked tonight
So I pick up my ball and chain
And I go back to work again

I give you all my pay
What the governor don’t take
I wish that I could take a break
Whatever I did was a big mistake

No rest for the wicked tonight

I hang onto the hope we’ll see the promised land
Where there is sunshine, it makes everything look grand

I really need to get some sleep
I really need to have some peace
I really need to get relief

No rest for the wicked tonight
