Nobody Knows |
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 |
