Once I had the life of a millionaire,
Spending my money, I didn't care.
I carried my friends out for a good time,
Bought bootleg liquor, champagne and wine.
Then I began to fall so low,
I didn't have no friends, and no place to go.
So if I get my hands on a dollar again,
I'm gonna hold on to it till that eagle grins.
Nobody knows you
When you're down and out. down and out
In your pocket, not one penny,
And my old friends, haven't any.
But if I ever walk on my feet again,
And then I'll meet my long-lost friend.
That's mighty strange, without no doubt,
No man can use you when you're down and out.
When you're down and out.
In your pocket, not one penny,
And my old friends, haven't any.
But if I ever walk on my feet again,
And then I'll meet my long-lost friend.
That's mighty strange, without no doubt,
No man can use you when you're down and out.
