Nobody Knows When You're Down and Out

歌詞

Once I lived the life of a millionaire Spending my money and I did not care Carryin' my friends out for the good time Buyin' bootleg liquor, champagne and wine Lord, but I got busted and I fell so low Didn't have no money and nowhere to go This is the truth, Lord, without a doubt Nobody wants you when you're down I mean, nobody wants you when you're down Lord, the other day I asked the man for my rent He told me, boy, the money he had spent But I tried my best to try one or two That's everything that I could do Lord, nobody let me have one lousy dime I'm out there worryin' now all the time But I'm gonna tell you this is true, Lord, without a doubt Nobody wants you when you're down Nobody wants you when you're down Lord, if I could get my hands on a dollar again I would hold it 'til that eagle grins I would try him just for one little house Nobody knows me when I'm down and out Lord, I'll try for another day To make my troubles in my own way But I'm gon' tell you the truth, Lord, without a doubt Nobody knows me when you're down I mean nobody knows me when you're down
