sonnerie téléphone portable pour Nobody knows you when you're down and out
Video clip

Once i lived the life of a millionaire,
Spending 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

Nobody knows you when you 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
Nobody knows you when you down and out
I mean when you down and out

Mmmmm, when you're down and out,
Mmmmm, not one penny
And my friends i haven't any,
Mmmmm, well i felt so low
Nobody wants me round their door,
Mmmmm, without a doubt,
No man can use you wen you down and out
I mean when you down and out
