Nobody Knows You (When You're Down and Out) Lyrics
[00:10.53] Once I lived the life of a millionaire
[00:19.58] People spending my money, money
[00:23.42] Lord and I just didn't care, no Lord
[00:29.05] Takin' my friends out
[00:32.22] Tryin' to have a good time
[00:37.41] They drank that strong bootleg liquor
[00:41.56] And that good old champagne and wine
[00:45.24]
[00:47.97] Well, just as soon as my money got so low
[00:56.66] I couldn't find my friends, Lord
[01:00.01] And I just didn't have no place to go
[01:05.78] But if I ever and if I ever get my hands
[01:10.22] On them green dollars again, yeah
[01:14.99] I'm gonna hold on
[01:19.04] Till that big eagle grin, Lord
[01:24.63] I'm trying to tell y'all
[01:27.17] That nobody wants you
[01:32.90] People, nobody wants you, no
[01:37.31] When you're down and out and I know
[01:41.82] Because in your pocket, no
[01:46.32] There is not one penny
[01:51.73] And all of them so-called friends
[01:55.90] I'm trying to tell y'all
[01:56.99] That you haven't got any
[01:58.77] But, yeah and just as soon
[02:03.76] As you get back on your feet again, ha
[02:10.65] People, I'm tryin' to tell you
[02:12.91] That here they come, tellin' you all
[02:15.57] They're your long lost friend
[02:20.22] Oh but I'm tryin' to tell everybody, Lord
[02:24.12] Without a doubt
[02:27.94] That nobody wants you
[02:31.85] Nobody wants you, no no
[02:36.41] Nobody wants you, no
[02:39.76] Nobody needs you, nobody wants you
[02:44.98] When you're down and out, Lord
[02:47.53] And nobody have a good thing about you
[02:51.26] And nobody can tell you when to turn
[02:53.85] And when to go
[02:55.79] Without a doub- ha ha
[02:56.62] But when you get back on your feet again
[03:00.66] Then everybody's gonna turn back and tell y'all
[03:03.87]
[00:19.58] People spending my money, money
