    All work, no play can sometimes mean that your family pays the price for your drive to succeed.
    Credits: music and lyrics by: L. (Rex Jupiter) Neuenkirk - special thanx to Robert M. Koenigsberg for the tips on slide playing and open tunings!

    Story Behind the Song
    Nothing heavy here. In fact this song really just came about because I had never played slide guitar before. So I learned a little bit and the song took off from there.

    Lyrics
    All your time it seems goes into the things to get by in this world - so good, so far
    Twelve hour days keep your mind in a haze so you just do not see - the damage in your wake

    Although your kids are older they're feeling so alone - never can they spend time with you
    Just a fleeting glance as you're headed out the door - your life has been lost to distraction

    Many bills to pay can I please find a way to keep up with this mess - so consuming
    Never realized it was killing me inside cause deep down I still knew - your family should come first

    Although your wife don't tell you she's feeling so alone - never can she spend time with you
    Just a fleeting glance as she's headed out the door - I wonder what is going to happen

    It's a midlife crisis now and it seems you're running scared
    Lost your money and a dutiful wife and your life's going nowhere
    Seems that fate has pulled the rug right out from under you
    You are haunted by the dreams you have lost
    But there's something you can do

    Take a chance - can you see the light
    Take a chance - things will work out right

    You're a slave to a job that you're too afraid to leave
    All your children are grown up and gone but you still cannot concieve
    Money just can't fill the void of the emptiness inside
    There's no discounts in the bargain bin you whole life has been a lie

    Take a chance - can you see the light
    Take a chance - things will work out right
