Nobody Knows You (When You're Down & Out) |
| Once I lived the life of a millionaire |
| Spent all my money, I just did not care |
| Took all my friends out for a good time |
| Bought bootleg whiskey, champagne and wine |
| Then I began to fall so low |
| Lost all my good friends, I did not have nowhere to go If I get my hands on a dollar again |
| I’m gonna hang on to it 'til that eagle grins, yeah |
| 'Cause no, no, nobody knows you |
| When you’re down and out |
| In your pocket, not one penny |
| And as for friends, you don’t have any |
| When you finally get back up on your feet again |
| Everybody wants to be your old long-lost friend |
| Said it’s mighty strange, without a doubt |
| Nobody knows you when you’re down and out |
| But when you finally get back up on your feet again |
| Everybody wants to be your good old long-lost friend |
| Said it’s mighty strange, yeah |
| Nobody knows you |
| Nobody knows you |
| Nobody knows you when you’re down and out |
