Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out
Once I lived a life a millionaire
Had so much money, I didn't care
I took my friends out for a mighty good time
Bootleg liquor, champagne and wine
Then I got busted, and I fell so low
Didn't have no money, no place to go
This is true, without any doubt
Nobody wants you when you're down and out
Nobody wants you when you're down and out
Just the other day, Lord, I asked a man for my rent
He told me of all the money he had spent
Did my best just to try, I wanted to
Did everything that a man can do
But nobody wants me to have one lousy dime
Now I'm worrying all the time
It might seem strange but it's true, without a doubt
Nobody wants you when you're down and out
Nobody wants you when you're down and out
Nobody wants you
When you're down and out
And your pockets ain't got a penny
And as for friends, well, I-I ain't got any
If you ever get back on your feet again
Everybody wants to be your long-lost friend
But this is true, without any doubt
Nobody wants you when you're down and out
Nobody wants you when you're down and out
Had so much money, I didn't care
I took my friends out for a mighty good time
Bootleg liquor, champagne and wine
Then I got busted, and I fell so low
Didn't have no money, no place to go
This is true, without any doubt
Nobody wants you when you're down and out
Nobody wants you when you're down and out
Just the other day, Lord, I asked a man for my rent
He told me of all the money he had spent
Did my best just to try, I wanted to
Did everything that a man can do
But nobody wants me to have one lousy dime
Now I'm worrying all the time
It might seem strange but it's true, without a doubt
Nobody wants you when you're down and out
Nobody wants you when you're down and out
Nobody wants you
When you're down and out
And your pockets ain't got a penny
And as for friends, well, I-I ain't got any
If you ever get back on your feet again
Everybody wants to be your long-lost friend
But this is true, without any doubt
Nobody wants you when you're down and out
Nobody wants you when you're down and out
