NOBODY KNOWS YOU WHEN YOU'RE DOWN AND OUT- Derek and the Dominos
OnCce I lived the liEfe Aof a millionaire A7 A
DmSpent all my moAneyDm, just did not care
FTook all my friF7ends outC for a C/Bgood tiAme
D7Bought bootleg whisky, G7champagne and wine
Then I began to fall so low
Lost all my good friends, I did not have nowhere to go
If I get my hands on a dollar again
I'm gonna hang on to it till that eagle grins, yeah
Cause no, no, nobody knows you
When you're down and out
In your pocket, not one penny
And as for friends, you don't have any
When you finally get back up on your feet again
Everybody wants to be your old long-lost friend
Said it's mighty strange, without a doubt
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
When you finally get back upon your feet again,
Everybody wants to be your good old long-lost friend
Said it's mighty strange
