Once I lived the life of a millionaire
Spending all my money, I just did not care
Taking my friends out for a mighty good time
Bootleg whiskey, champagne and wine
Then I began to fall so low
Lost all my good friends and nowhere to go
If I get my hands on a dollar again
I'm gonna hang onto it till the eagle grins
Cause nobody knows you
When you're down and out
In my pocket, not one penny
And my friends, I haven't any
But if I get myself back on my feet again
Everybody wanna be my long-lost friend
It's mighty strange, without a doubt
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
I mean, when you're down and out
Cause nobody knows you
When you're down and out
In my pocket, not one penny
And my friends, I haven't any
Spending all my money, I just did not care
Taking my friends out for a mighty good time
Bootleg whiskey, champagne and wine
Then I began to fall so low
Lost all my good friends and nowhere to go
If I get my hands on a dollar again
I'm gonna hang onto it till the eagle grins
Cause nobody knows you
When you're down and out
In my pocket, not one penny
And my friends, I haven't any
But if I get myself back on my feet again
Everybody wanna be my long-lost friend
It's mighty strange, without a doubt
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
I mean, when you're down and out
Cause nobody knows you
When you're down and out
In my pocket, not one penny
And my friends, I haven't any
