Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out Songtext
von La Santa Cecilia & California Feetwarmers

Once I lived the life of a millionaire
Spending my money, I didn′t care
I carried my friends out for a good time
Buying bootleg liquor, champagne and wine

Then I began to fall so low
I didn't have a friend, and no place to go
But if I ever get my hands on a dollar again
I′m gonna hold on to it till them eagles grin


Nobody knows you when you're down and out
In my pocket not one penny
And my friends I haven't any
But If I ever get on my feet again
Then I′ll meet my long lost friend
It′s mighty strange, without a doubt
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
I mean when you′re down and out

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

Then I began to fall so low
I didn′t have a friend, and no place to go
But if I ever get my hands on a dollar again
I'm gonna hold on to it till them eagles grin


Nobody knows you when you′re down and out
In my pocket not one penny
And my friends I haven't any
But If I ever get on my feet again
Then I'll meet my long lost friend
It′s mighty strange, without a doubt
Nobody knows you when you′re down and out
I mean when you're down and out
