Nobody Knows You When You're Down And 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
I get my hands on a dollar again
I'm gonna hang on to it
Till that eagle grins

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 upon 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

When you finally get back upon your feet again
Everybody wants to be
Your good old long-lost friend
Said it's mighty strange
Nobody knows you
Nobody knows you
Nobody knows you
When you're down and out
