Nobody Knows You When You're Down And Out

Once I lived the life of a millionaire

Spending my money I didn't care

I carried my friends out for a good time

Buying bootleg liquor champagne and wine

Then I began to fall so low

I didn't have a friend and no place to go

So if I ever get my hand on a dollar again

I'm gonna hold on to it till them eagle's grin

Nobody knows you when you down and out

In my pocket not one penny

And my friends I haven't any

But If I ever get on my feet again

Then I'll meet my long lost friend

It's mighty strange without a doubt

Nobody knows you when you down and out

I mean when you down and out

Mmmmm when you're down and out

Mmmmm not one penny

And my friends I haven't any

Mmmmm well I felt so low

Nobody wants me round their door

Mmmmm without a doubt

No man can use you wen you down and out

I mean when you down and out
