Once I lived the life of a millionaire
Spent all my money; didnХt have any cares
Took all my friends out for a mighty good time
Bought bootleg liquor, champagne, and wine
Then I began to fall so low
Lost all my good friends; had nowhere to go
If I get my hands on a dollar again
IХll hang on to it till that old
Because nobody knows you
When youХre down and out
In your pocket not one penny-
And as for friends, you donХt have many
When you get back on your feet again
Everybody wants to be your long lost friend
I said itХs strange without any doubt
Nobody knows you whan youХre down and out
