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 |
