It's A Hard Business

I got nothing and no-one in my life
So how can I lose again
Got my feet in muddy water
But I'm gonna find that road again
So I'll be taking care of business
'Cause I know what I'm looking for
Oh I've been working every hour God gives to me

 But I still see the same closed door

Now who does that lyric remind me of...?
