Nobody Knows You When You're Down & Out Lyrics - Unplugged: Expanded & Remastered - Eric Clapton

Once I lived the life of a millionaire 

Spent all my money, didn't have any care 

Took all my friends out for a mighty good time 

Bought bootleg liquor, champagne and wine 

Then I began to fall so low 

Lost all my good friends, had nowhere to go 

I get my hands on a dollar again 

I'll hang on to it till that old eagle grins 

'Cause nobody knows you 

When you're down and out 

In your pocket, not one penny 

And as for friends, you don't have many 

When you get back on your feet again 

Everybody wants to be your long-lost friend 

I said it's strange, without any doubt 

Nobody knows you when you're down and out

Oh Nobody knows you 

When you're down and out 

In your pocket, not one penny 

And as for friends, you don't have any 

When you get back on your feet again 

Everybody wants to be your long-lost friend 

I said it's strange, without any doubt 

Nobody knows you (nobody knows you) 

Nobody knows you (nobody knows you) 

Nobody knows you 

When you're down and out
