(Jimmie Cox)

Once I lived the life
|
of a millionaire
|
Spending my money
|
Oh I didn't care
|
Taking my friends out
|
For a mighty good time
|
Oh we'd drink that good gin
|
Champagne and wine
|
|
But oh just as soon
|
As my money got low
|
I couldn't find nobody
|
And I had no place to go
|
And if I ever get my hands
|
On a dollar again
|
I'm gonna hold on
|
Till the eagle wins
|
Cause I found out
|
|
Nobody wants you
|
When you're down and out
|
Nobody wants you
|
When you're down and out
|
|
Lord have mercy
|
|
Yeah, yeah, now listen
|
Now in your pocket
|
There's not one penny
|
And all of them good friends
|
You found out you haven't got any
|
Nobody come around
|
But the landlord and the taxman
|
Your ex-wife who says
|
She wants more alimony
|
Then there's a knock on the door
|
And it's a woman you don't know
|
Says she's having your baby
|
She'll walk on in
|
|
But oh just as soon
|
as the money roll in
|
Here they all come sayings
|
That they're you're long lost friends
|
But if I ever get my hands
|
On a dollar again
|
I believe, I believe I'll hold on
|
Till the eagle wins
|
Cause I found out
|
|
Nobody wants you
|
When you're down and out
|
Nobody wants you
|
When you're down and out
|
|
Nobody wants you
|
When you're down and out
|
Nobody wants you
|
When you're down and out
|
|
Nobody wants you
|
When you're down and out
|
Nobody wants you
|
When you're down and out
|
|
Nobody wants you
|
When you're down and out
|
Nobody, nobody, nobody
|
