Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out (Acoustic) [Live at MTV Unplugged, Bray Film Studios, Windsor, England, UK, 1/16/1992] [2013 Remaster] (Acoustic Live)

Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out (Acoustic Live) - Eric Clapton/Jimmy Cox

Once I lived the life of a millionaire

Spent all my money didn't have any care

Took all my friends out for a mighty good time

We bought bootleg liquor champagne and wine

Then I began to fall so low

Lost all my good friends had nowhere to go

I get my hands on a dollar again

I'll hang on to it till that old eagle grins

Because nobody knows you

When you're down and out

In your pocket not one penny

And as for friends you don't have any

When you get back on your feet again

Everybody wants to be your old long-lost friend

I'll set it strange without any doubt

Nobody knows you when you're down and out

Oh nobody knows you

When you're down and out

In your pocket not one penny

And as for friends you don't have any

When you get back on your feet again

Everybody wants to be your old long-lost friend

I'll set it strange without any doubt

Nobody knows

Nobody knows you

Nobody knows you

Nobody knows you

Nobody knows you

When you're down and out
