Van Morrison - Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out Lyrics



Van Morrison - Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out Lyrics




Once I lived the life of a millionaire
Spent all my money, I just did not care
Took all my friends out for a good time
Bought bootleg whiskey, champagne and wine

Then I began to fall so low
Lost all my good friends
I did not have nowhere to go
I get my hands on a dollar again
I'm gonna hang on to it till that eagle grins

'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 nobody knows you
Nobody knows you
Nobody knows you when you're down and out

Said it's mighty strange nobody knows you
Nobody knows you
