Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out

Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out



by Jimmy Cox
Once I lived the life of a millionaire
Spent all my money & I didn't care

Taking my friends out for a mighty good time


Buying high priced liquor, champagne and wine


But then I began to fall so low


I didn't have a dollar, I had no place to go


Well if I ever get my hands on a dollar again


I'll hold on to it til the eagle grins


Nobody knows you / when you're down and out


In my pocket not one penny


And when it comes to friends, I haven't any


But when I get back on my feet again


Everybody wants to be my long lost friend


It's mighty strange without a doub


Nobody knows you when you're down and out
