B.B. King - Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out lyrics
I once lived the life of a millionaire Spending my money I didn't care Always taking my friends out for a good time Buying champagne, gin and wine But just as soon as my dough got low I couldn't find a friend, no place I go If I ever get my hands on a dollar again I'm gonna squeeze it, and squeeze it Till the eagle grins Nobody knows you when you're down and out In your pocket, not one penny And your friends, you haven't any And as soon as you get on your feet again Everybody is your long lost friend It's mighty strange, without a doubt, but Nobody wants you when you're down and out You know folks, I once had a mansion Way up on the side of a hill I'd give champagne and caviar parties Just for fun and get a thrill But you know things they just can't stay like that forever And now I can't muscle up enough money To buy a shot of gin But you know, if I ever get my hands on a dollar again I'm gonna squeeze it, and squeeze it till the eagle grins It's mighty strange, without a doubt Nobody wants you Nobody needs you Nobody wants you when you're down and out. |
