Paroles
[Verse 1]
Once I lived the life of a millionaire
Spending all my money
I just didn't care
Took all my friends out
For a mighty good time
Drinkin' bootleg whiskey
Champagne and wine
[Verse 2]
Then I began to sink so low
Lost all my money
Didn't have nowhere to go
If I ever get my hands on a dollar again
I'm gonna squeeze it
Till that old eagle grins
[Chorus]
Nobody knows you
When you're down and out
In your pocket (Uh-huh)
You ain't got one penny
And all your so called friends
You just ain't got any
[Verse 3]
When I get back on my feet again
Everybody gonna wanna be my long-lost friend
It's mighty strange
Without a doubt
But nobody knows you
When you're down and out
When you're down and out
[Chorus]
Nobody knows you
When you're down and out
In your pocket
You ain't got a red penny
And your so-called friends
You just ain't got any
[Verse 4]
When you begin to get back on your feet again
Everybody wants to be your long-lost friend
It's mighty strange
Without a doubt (Nobody)
Can use you when you're down
[Chorus]
Nobody knows you
When you're down and out
In your pocket
You ain't got no penny
You ain't got no friends
Well you just ain't got any
