Nobody Knows You When You're Down And Out

Alberta Hunter

Once I lived the life Of a millionaire Spending my money And I didn't care Taking my friends out Having a good time Buying bootleg liquor Champagne and wine Ah but when my money Began to fall so low I didn't have a friend And I couldn't go If I ever get my hands On a dollar again I'm gonna squeeze it And squeeze it Until that eagle grins 'Cause nobody knows you When you are down and out In your pocket not one penny And friends you haven't any But as soon as you get on your feet Many friends you chance to met It's strange to say, without a doubt Nobody knows you when your down and out They don't know you when you're down and out, no Nobody knows you When you are down and out In your pocket not one penny And friends you haven't any If I ever get my hands On a dollar again And I happen to run across A few of my fair weather friends I've learned my lesson Yes I've found out That nobody knows you No, no no nobody need you Lord, lord, no nobody knows you When you're down, down and out
