Once I lived the life of a millionaire Spending my money, I just didn't care Took all my friends out for a good time Buying bootleg liquor, champagne and wine Then I began to fall so low Lost all my good friends, and no place to go If I get my hands on a dollar again I'll hang on to it till the eagle grins Nobody knows you when you're down and out In your pocket not one penny And all your for friends, you don't have any If you get back on your fit again Then you will find your long lost friends It's mighty strange without a 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 all your for friends, you don't have any If you get back on your fit again Then you will find your long lost friends It's mighty strange without a doubt Nobody knows you Nobody knows you Nobody knows you when you're down and out
