Nobody Knows You When You’re Down And Out |
| Once I left lived the life of a millionaire |
| Spending my money I didn’t care |
| I took all my friends out for a good time |
| Bought them all whiskey campaign and wine oh |
| Then I begin to fall solo |
| I didn’t have any friends |
| I had no where to go |
| If I ever get my hands on a dollar again |
| I’m going to hold on to it till that old eagle grins because |
| No body knows you when you’re down and out in my pocket not one penny |
| As for friends well I don’t have any |
| If I ever get on my feet again everybody wants to be my long lost friend that’s |
| mighty strange without a doubt nobody knows you when you’re down and out oh |
| when you’re down and out |
| I said if I ever get on my feet again everybody wants to be my long lost friend |
| said it’s kind of strange without a doubt no body knows you when you’re down |
| and out I mean when you’re down and out oh when you’re down and out. |
