Once I lived the life of a millionaire
Spent all my money (lord) and I didn t care
Taking my friends out for a mighty good time
Drinking fancy 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 get my hands on a dollar again
I ll hang on to it till the eagle grins
Nobody knows you
When your down and out my friend

In my pocket I haven t got a pennie
And as for friends I ain t got to many
But when I get back on my feet again
Everybody wants to be my long lost friend
It s mighty strange with out any doubt
Nobody Knows you when your down and out
