Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Once I lived the life of a millionaire
I spent all my money and I didn't care
I took all my friends out for a good time
I bought 'em all whiskey, I bought 'em champagne and wine
[Verse 2]
Then I began a fall, so low
Nobody with me and nowhere to go
If I ever get my hands on a dollar again
I'll keep it, baby, until the eagle grins
[Verse 3]
'Cause nobody knows you when you're down and out
It's mighty strange without a doubt
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
When you're down and out
[Verse 4]
Oh, nobody knows you when you're down and out
In my pocket, not one penny
And my friends, there ain't many
'Cause nobody knows you when you're down and out
When you're down and out
When you're down and out
