Nobody Knows You When You're Down And Out

Janis Joplin

Well, once I lived the life of a millionaire

Spending my money, no, I didn't care

Takin' my friend John out for a mighty good time

Buyin' high-priced liquor, champagne and wine.



Then I began to fall so low,

Didn't have a friend, nor no place to go.

If I get my hands on a dollar again

I'm goin' to hold on to it until the eagle grins.



Soon as I get back up on my feet again

Everybody wants to be my long-lost friend.

It's might strange, without a doubt

Nobody wants you when you're down and out.



Lord, soon as I get up on my feet again

Everybody wants to be my long-lost friend

It's mighty strange, without a doubt

Nobody wants you when you're down and out.

That's what I mean ¡ª when you're down and out.
