Nobody Knows You When You re Down And Out
by Jimmy Cox recording of 19 from Janis 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, when you're down and out __________ Note 1: Flexi included with "Janis", written and edited by David Dalton, a Stonehill Book, Simon and Schuster 1971, SBN 671-21088-2 Casebound edition, SBN 671-21089-0 Touchstone paperback edition.
