Nobody Knows You When You're Down And Out

Once I lived the life of a millionaire

Spending my money

Honey I didn't care

Taking my friends out for a mighty good time

I drank that good gin

Champagne and wine



Just as soon as my money got low I couldn't find no friends

And I had no place to go

If I ever get my hands on a dollar again

I'm gonna hold on to it 'til that eagle grins



'Cause I found out that nobody wants you

Nobody wants you when they find out that you're down and out

In your pocket there's not

Not one penny

And as for friends you don't have any



Just let you get back up on your feet again

Here they all come telling you their your old long lost friend

And this I wanna tell you and about it I have no doubt

Nobody wants you

Nobody needs you

Nobody wants when you're down and out
