Once I led the life of a millionaire
spending all my money, I didn't care
taking my friends out for a mighty good time
bootleg whisky, champagne and wine
Then I began to fall so low
lost all my good friends and nowhere to go
if I get my hands on a dollar again
gonna hang on to it till the eagle grins
'Cause 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 get myself back on my feet again
everybody wanna be 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
'Cause 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 get myself back on my feet again
everybody wanna be 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
when you're down and out
when you're down and out
ooh when you're down and
when you're down and out
