(lyrics are written by Duane Allman & Eric Clapton) NOBODY KNOWS YOU WHEN YOU'RE DOWN AND OUT

Well, once I lived the life of a millionaire,
spent all my money, didn't have a care.
Took my friends out for a a mighty good ride
Drinkin' boottleg whiskey, that good old champagne and wine
Then I began to fall so low,
didn't have a penny, no place to go.
If I ever get my hands on a dollar again
I'm gonna hold on to it til the eagle grins.
Nobody loves you when you're down and out,
in your pocket you ain't got a penny.
All your friends? Don't have any.
All right!
Just as you start to get back on your feet again,
here they all come again, saying, "You're my long-lost friend!"
Seems so strange sometimes, without a doubt.
Nobody loves you.
Nobody wants you.
Nobody loves you, no.
Nobody needs you
when you're down and out.
