JANIS JOPLIN - Nobody Knows You When You're Down & Out lyrics

rate me

Well, once I lived the life of a millionaire<br>Spending my money, no, I didn't care<br>Takin' my friend john out for a mighty good time<br>Buyin' high-priced liquor, champagne and wine.<br><br>Then I began to fall so low,<br>Didn't have a friend, nor no place to go.<br>If I get my hands on a dollar again<br>I'm goin' to hold on to it until the eagle grins.<br><br>Soon as I get back up on my feet again<br>Everybody wants to be my long-lost friend.<br>It's might strange, without a doubt<br>Nobody wants you when you're down and out.<br><br>Lord, soon as I get up on my feet again<br>Everybody wants to be my long-lost friend<br>It's mighty strange, without a doubt<br>Nobody wants you when you're down and out.<br>That's what I mean ¡º when you're down and out.
