Nobody Knows You (When You're Down and Out)

Nobody Knows You (When You're Down and Out) - Leslie Odom Jr.

Written by：Jimmie Cox

Once I lived the life of a millionaire

Spending my money I didn't care

Always taking my friends out for a good time

Spending all my money on gin and cheap wine

And just as soon as my dough got low

I couldn't find a friend no place to go

If I ever get my hands on a dollar again

I'm gonna squeeze it I promise I'll squeeze

And make that eagle grin

Nobody knows you

When you're down and out

In your pocket not one penny

And your friends you haven't any

But just as soon as you get back on your feet again

Everybody is your long lost friend

Mighty strange but without a doubt

Nobody knows you when you're down and out

Nobody knows you when you're down and out
