0:14Well once I lived the life of a millionaire
0:20Spending my money I didn't care
0:26Takin' my friends out for a mighty good time
0:32Buyin' boot leg liquor champagne and wine
0:38Then I began to fall so low
0:44Couldn't find me no friends
0:46Had no place to go
0:50If I ever get my hands on a dollar again
0:55I'm gonna hold on to it till the eagle grins
1:02I said nobody knows you
1:09When you're down and out
1:14In your pocket you ain't got one penny
1:21And your friends you didn't have any
1:26Just as soon as you get up on your feet again
1:32Here they all come they say that they're your long-lost friend
1:39Oh lord without a doubt
1:45Nobody wants you
1:51Nobody needs you
1:58Nobody wants you
2:02When you're down and out
2:05I say
2:09Nobody wants you
2:16Nobody needs you
2:22Nobody wants you when you're down and out
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' boot leg 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 pocket you ain't got one penny And your friends you didn't have any Just as soon as you get up on 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
