Emmy Rossum - Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out Lyrics

Once I lived the life of a millionaire
Spending my money, I didn't care
I took all my friends out for a good time
Bought 'em all whiskey, champagne and wine

Then I began to fall so low
I didn't have any friends, I had nowhere to go
If I ever get my hands on a dollar again
I'm gonna hold on to it till that old eagle grins

Nobody knows you when you're down and out
In my pocket not one penny
And as for friends, well, I don't have any
If I ever get on my feet again
Everybody wants to be my long, lost friend
It's mighty strange, without a doubt
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
Ohh when you're down and out

So if I ever get on my feet again
And everybody wants to be my long, lost friend
Said it's kinda strange, without a doubt
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
I mean when you're down and out
Ohh when you're down and out
