Nothing Behind You (and Nothing in Sight) Lyrics

From Monday till Friday I sell my time
They just want my body; they don't want my mind
And I watch that old paycheck just slip through my hands
Can't even afford no beer with my friends
CHORUS:
Ain't that a hell of a way to live out your life?
Knowing all your tomorrows will be just a lie?
When the worries have stolen the dreams from your life
And there's nothing behind you & nothing in sight
From daylight till midnight, her work goes on
Raising our children & making our home
She needs a new dress, but the money's all gone
And what she needs most is some time all her own

CHORUS:
Ain't that a hell of a way to live out your life?
Knowing all your tomorrows will be just a lie?
When the worries have stolen the dreams from your life
And there's nothing behind you & nothing in sight
And there's nothing behind you & nothing in sight
