Nobody Knows You When You're Down And Out
Once I lived the life of a millionaire
Spent all my money, like I didn't a care
Threatin' my friends out for a mighty good time
Buying that fancy liquor, champagne and wine
Then I began to fall so low
I didn't have no money and no place to go
If I ever get my hands on a dollar again
I'm gonna hang onto it 'til that eagle grins, cause
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
In your pocket, you haven't got a penny
As your friends, well, ain't too many
If I ever get back on my feet again
Everybody wants to be my long-lost friend
It's mighty strange, without a doubt
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
And then I began to fall so low
I didn't have no money and no place to go
If I ever get my hands on a dollar again
I'm gonna hang onto it 'til that eagle grins, cause
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
In your pocket, you haven't got a penny
As your friends, well, there ain't too many
If I ever get back on my feet again
Everybody wants to be my long-lost friend
It's mighty strange, without a doubt
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
Spent all my money, like I didn't a care
Threatin' my friends out for a mighty good time
Buying that fancy liquor, champagne and wine
Then I began to fall so low
I didn't have no money and no place to go
If I ever get my hands on a dollar again
I'm gonna hang onto it 'til that eagle grins, cause
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
In your pocket, you haven't got a penny
As your friends, well, ain't too many
If I ever get back on my feet again
Everybody wants to be my long-lost friend
It's mighty strange, without a doubt
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
And then I began to fall so low
I didn't have no money and no place to go
If I ever get my hands on a dollar again
I'm gonna hang onto it 'til that eagle grins, cause
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
In your pocket, you haven't got a penny
As your friends, well, there ain't too many
If I ever get back on my feet again
Everybody wants to be my long-lost friend
It's mighty strange, without a doubt
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
