Nobody Knows You When You’re Down and Out Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Once I lived the life of a millionaire
Spending my money, I didn't care
I carried my friends out for a good time
Buyin' bootleg liquor, champagne and wine

[Verse 2]
When I begin to fall so low
I didn't have a friend and no place to go
So, if I ever get my hands on a dollar again
I'm gonna hold on to it 'til the eagle grin

[Verse 3]
Nobody knows you
When you're down and out
In my pocket not one penny
And my friends, ha, I haven't any

[Verse 4]
But If I ever get on my feet again
Then I'll meet my long-lost friends
It's mighty strange, yeah, without a doubt
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
I mean when you're down and out

[Trumpet Solo]

[Verse 5]
Ooh, hoo, hoo
When you're down and out
Hoo, hoo, not one penny
And my friends, I haven't any

[Verse 6]
Ooh, I done fell so low
Nobody wants me around their door
Ooh-hoo, yay, without a doubt
Oh, no man can use you when you're down and out
I mean when you're down and out
