bessie smith - nobody knows when you're down and out lyrics
once i lived the life of a millionaire
spendin’ my money, i didn’t care
i carried my friends out for a good time
buying bootleg liquor, champagne and wine
then i began to fall so low
i didn’t have a friend and no place to go
so if i ever get my hand on a dollar again
i’m gonna hold on to it till them eagle’s grin
n-body knows you
when you’re down and out
in my pocket not one penny
and my friends, i haven’t any
but if i ever get on my feet again
then i’ll meet my long lost friend
it’s mighty strange without a doubt
n-body knows you when you’re down and out
i mean when you’re down and out
when you’re down and out, not one penny
and my friends, i haven’t any and i felt so low
n-body wants me ’round their door
without a doubt
no man can use you when you’re down and out
i mean when you’re down and out
