Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out

Once I lived the life of a millionare.
Spent my money, I didn't care.
Carried my friends out for a good time,
buying bootleg licquer, champagne, and wine.

Then I began to fall so low.
Didn't have a friend and noplace to go.
If I wver get my hands on a dollar again,
I'm gonna hold on to it till the eagles grin.

Nobody knows you when you're down and out.
In my pocket not one penny,
and my friends I haven't any.
If I ever get on my feet again,
now meet my long-lost friend.
It's mighty strange. Without a doubt.
Nobody knows you when you're down and out.
I mean, when you're down and out.

Hmmm. when you're down and out.
Hmm. not one penny, and my friends I haven't any.
Hmm. felt so low. Nobody wants me around their door.
Hmm. without a doubt.
No man can use you when you're down and out.
I mean, when you're down and out.
