song lyrics Nobody Knows You When You re Down And Out lyrics
I once lived the life of a millionaire Spending my money I didn t care Always taking my friends out for a good time Buying champagne, gin and wine But just as soon as my dough got low I couldn t find a friend, no place I go If I ever get my hands on a dollar again I m gonna squeeze it, and squeeze it Till the eagle grins
Nobody knows you when you re down and out In your pocket, not one penny And your friends, you haven t any And as soon as you get on your feet again Everybody is your long lost friend It s mighty strange, without a doubt, but Nobody wants you when you re down and out
You know folks, I once had a mansion Way up on the side of a hill I d give champagne and caviar parties Just for fun and get a thrill But you know things they just can t stay like that forever And now I can t muscle up enough money To buy a shot of gin
But you know, if I ever get my hands on a dollar again I m gonna squeeze it, and squeeze it till the eagle grins It s mighty strange, without a doubt Nobody wants you Nobody needs you Nobody wants you when you re down and out song lyrics
