Once I lived the life of a millionaire
Spending all my money, I didn't ever care
Takin' my friends out for a mighty good ride
Buyin' boot leg whiskey, champagne and wine
Then I began to fall so low
Couldn't find me no friends
Had no place to go
If I ever lay my hands on a dollar again
I'm gonna hold on to it, till the eagle grin
No, nobody knows you
When you're down and out
In your pocket, you ain't got one penny
And your friends, you don't have any
Well, Just as soon as you get back on your feet again
Here they all come, then say they're your long-lost friends
I said no it is mighty strange
Puppet on a dollar
Nobody loves you
Nobody needs you
Nobody loves you
Nobody loves you
When you're down and out
I say
Nobody needs you
Nobody wants you
Nobody needs you
Nobody loves you
Nobody loves you
when you're down and out
Spending all my money, I didn't ever care
Takin' my friends out for a mighty good ride
Buyin' boot leg whiskey, champagne and wine
Then I began to fall so low
Couldn't find me no friends
Had no place to go
If I ever lay my hands on a dollar again
I'm gonna hold on to it, till the eagle grin
No, nobody knows you
When you're down and out
In your pocket, you ain't got one penny
And your friends, you don't have any
Well, Just as soon as you get back on your feet again
Here they all come, then say they're your long-lost friends
I said no it is mighty strange
Puppet on a dollar
Nobody loves you
Nobody needs you
Nobody loves you
Nobody loves you
When you're down and out
I say
Nobody needs you
Nobody wants you
Nobody needs you
Nobody loves you
Nobody loves you
when you're down and out
