Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out (Live)
Once I lived a life of a millionaire
Spending my money without any care
I took my friends for mighty good times
Bought bootleg liquor, champagne, and wine
Then I began to fall so low
I lost my good friends, had nowhere to go
I get my hands on a dollar again
I hang on to it 'til that eagle grins
'Cause 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 get back on your feet again
Everybody wants to be your long-lost friend
I said it's strange, without any doubt
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
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 get back on your feet again
Everybody wants to be your long-lost friend
I said it's strange, without any doubt
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
Spending my money without any care
I took my friends for mighty good times
Bought bootleg liquor, champagne, and wine
Then I began to fall so low
I lost my good friends, had nowhere to go
I get my hands on a dollar again
I hang on to it 'til that eagle grins
'Cause 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 get back on your feet again
Everybody wants to be your long-lost friend
I said it's strange, without any doubt
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
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 get back on your feet again
Everybody wants to be your long-lost friend
I said it's strange, without any doubt
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
