Sencillo / Pista
Once I lived the life of a millionaire
Spending my money, Lord, I didn't care
I carried my friends out for a mighty good time
Buying bootleg liquor, champagne and wine
Then I begun to fall so low
Didn't have no money and no place to go
If I get my hands on a dollar again
I'm gonna hold on to it 'til the eagle grins
Because nobody knows you when you're down and out
In your pockets, not one penny, and your friends, you have not any
But when you get on your feet again
Everybody wants to be your long-lost friend
It's mighty strange, without a doubt
No man can use you when you're down and out
Lord, I mean when you're down and out
Mmm, when you're down and out
Mmm, and your friends, you have not any
When you get on your feet again
Everybody will want to be your long-lost friend
It's mighty strange, yes, without a doubt
I said no man can use you when you're down and out
Lord, I mean when you're down and out
