Nobody Knows You when You're Down & Out

Once I lived the life of a millionaire Spendin' my money, oh, I didn't care Takin' my friends out for a mighty good time Oh, we'd drink that good gin, champagne and wine But oh just as soon as my money got low I couldn't find nobody and I had no place to go And if I ever get my hands on a dollar again I'm gonna hold on till the eagle wins 'Cause I found out Nobody wants you When you're down and out Nobody wants you When you're down and out Lord have mercy Yeah, yeah, now listen Now in your pocket there's not one penny And all of them good friends, you found out you haven't got any Nobody come around but the landlord and the taxman Your ex-wife who says she wants more alimony Then there's a knock on the door and it's a woman you don't know Says she's havin' your baby, she'll walk on in But oh, just as soon as the money roll in See they all come sayings that they're you're long lost friends But if I ever get my hands on a dollar again I believe, I believe I'll hold on till the eagle wins 'Cause I found out 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 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 Nobody wants you When you're down and out Nobody, nobody, nobody
