Nobody Knows You (When You're Down and Out) |
| Once I lived the life of a millionaire |
| Spendin' my money, I didn’t even care |
| Takin' all my friends out for a good times |
| Buyin' them champagne, cocaine, branded grass and wine |
| But in 1954 when I began to fall down low |
| I didn’t have any friends, any place to go |
| But if I ever get my hands on a dollar again |
| I’m gonna squeeze it and squeeze that mother till the eagle grins |
| Nobody knows you when you’re down and out, oh yeah |
| And in your pockets not one penny |
| And your friends, you can’t find any |
| But if I ever, I swear if I ever get on my feet again |
| I pray and I hope I don’t meet my lost long friends |
| It’s mighty strange without a doubt |
| Nobody knows you when you’re down and out |
| Nobody knows you when you’re broke |
