[Verse 1]
Once I lived the life of a millionaire
Spent all my money, I just didn't care
Took all my friends out for a good time
Bought bootleg liquor, champagne, and wine
Then I began to fall so low
Lost all my good friends, I had nowhere to go
If I get my hands on a dollar again
I'm gonna hang on to it 'til that old eagle grins
'Cause nobody knows you when you're down and out
[Chorus]
Said it's mighty strange, without a doubt
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
[Verse 2]
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
In your pocket, not one penny
And as for friends, well, you don't got any
When you finally get back up on your feet again
Everybody wants to be your long-lost friend
[Chorus]
Said it's mighty strange, without a doubt
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
[Outro]
Oh, nobody knows you
Oh, nobody knows you, baby
