Odetta - Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out Lyrics



Odetta - Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out Lyrics




Once I lived a life of a million mare
Spending all my money and I didn't care
Took my friends out we had a good time
Buying good old whiskey, champagne and wine

Then I began to fall so low
Didn't have a friend and no place to go
If I get my hands on a dollar again
I'm gonna hold on to it till then I give a grin

Nobody knows you
When you're down and out
It my pocket not one penny
And my friends well I haven't any

If I ever get back on my feet again
Go to see my long lost friends
Money's strange without a doubt
Nobody needs ya when you're down and out

If I ever get back on my feet again
Go to see my long lost friends
Money's strange without a doubt
Nobody needs ya when you're down and out
