Dwight Yoakam - No Future In Sight Lyrics

The clock in your pocket keeps tickin'
But that don't get prayed to by me
I threw away all I was given
Just so that I could be free

I've got no future in sight
Time won't deny that I'm right
The past has always been bright
But I've got no future in sight

So, if for me you have come a-lookin'
You better knock with a gun in your hand
For boldness has started a journey
That only the graveyard will end

I've got no future in sight
Time won't deny that I'm right
The past has always been bright
But I've got no future in sight

I made love to my pretty wife this morning
Then I kissed my sleepin' babies goodbye
And have set forth upon those who decided
That this is the day I'd die

And I've got no future in sight
Time won't deny that I'm right
The past has always been bright
But I've got no future in sight
