Nobody Knows You When Youre Down & Out
(jimmie cox)
Once I lived the life
Of a millionaire
Spending my money
Oh I didnt care
Taking my friends out
For a mighty good time
Oh wed drink that good gin
Champagne and wine
But oh just as soon
As my money got low
I couldnt find nobody
And I had no place to go
And if I ever get my hands
On a dollar again
Im gonna hold on
Till the eagle wins
Cause I found out
Nobody wants you
When youre down and out
Nobody wants you
When youre down and out
Lord have mercy
Yeah, yeah, now listen
Now in your pocket
Theres not one penny
And all of them good friends
You found out you havent got any
Nobody come around
But the landlord and the taxman
Your ex-wife who says
She wants more alimony
Then theres a knock on the door
And its a woman you dont know
Says shes having your baby
Shell walk on in
But oh just as soon
As the money roll in
Here they all come sayings
That theyre youre long lost friends
But if I ever get my hands
On a dollar again
I believe, I believe Ill hold on
Till the eagle wins
Cause I found out
Nobody wants you
When youre down and out
Nobody wants you
When youre down and out
Nobody wants you
