Katie Melua - Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out
Once I lived the life of a millionaireSpending all my money, I didn't care
Taking my friends out for a mighty good time
Bootleg whiskey, champagne and wine
Then I began to fall so low
Lost all my good friends, and nowhere to go
If I get my hands on a dollar again
Gonna hang onto it 'til that eagle grins
'Cause nobody knows you
When you're down and out
In my pocket, not one penny
And my friends, I haven't any
But if I get myself back up on my feet again
Everybody wanna be my long-lost friend
It's mighty strange, without a doubt
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
I mean, when you're down and out
'Cause nobody knows you
When you're down and out
In my pocket, not one penny
And my friends, I haven't any
But when I get myself back on my feet again
Everyone wanna be my long-lost friend
It's mighty strange, without a doubt
Nobody knows you when you're down and out
I mean, when you're down and out
When you're down and out
Ooh, when you're down and
When you're down and out
