Lyrics

Once, I lived the life of a millionaire Spent all my money, I just did not care Taking all my friend out for a good time We bought bootleg whiskey, champagne and wine Then I began to fall so low I lost all my good friends, I did not have nowhere to go Never get my hand on a dollar again I'm gonna hang on to it until the eagle grins 'Cause no, no, no, nobody knows you When you're down and out In your pocket [Incomprehensible], not one penny And as for friends, you don't have any When you finally get back upon your feet again Here comes everybody sayin' they wanna be A good old long-lost friend, [Incomprehensible] mighty strange Nobody knows you when you're down and out I said, when you finally get back on your feet Everybody wants to be a good old long-lost friend You know it's mighty strange, yeah, down and out Nobody knows you, nobody knows you Nobody, nobody knows you when you're down and out
