Nina Simone - Nobody Knows You when You're Down & Out lyrics
Well, once I lived the life of a millionaire
Spending my money, I didn't care
Takin' my friends out for a mighty good time
Buyin' bootleg liquor, champagne and wine
Then I began to fall so low
Couldn't find me no friends, had no place to go
If I ever get my hands on a dollar again
I'm gonna hold on to it, till the eagle grins
I said, nobody knows you when you're down and out
In your pockets, you ain't got one pennyNina Simone - Nobody Knows You when You're Down & Out - http://motolyrics.com/nina-simone/nobody-knows-you-when-youre-down-and-out-lyrics.html
And your friends, you didn't have any
Just as soon as you get upon your feet again
Here they all come, they say
That they're your long-lost friend
Oh Lord, without a doubt
Nobody wants you, nobody needs you
Nobody wants you when you're down and out
I say nobody wants you, nobody needs you
Nobody wants you when you're down and out
