Nobody Knows You
( Cox ) Once i lived the life of millionaire People spending my money, honey Lord, and i just didn't care, now lord Takin' my friend out Tryin' to have a good time They drank that strong bootleg liquor And that good old champagne and wine Well, just as soon as my money got so low I couldn't find my friends, lord And i just didn't have no place to go Now, no no But if i ever, and if i ever get my hands On them green dollars again, yeah I'm gonna hold on Till that big eagle grin, lord now I'm trying to tell y'all That nobody wants you People, nobody wants you, no When you're down and out, now now lord Because in your pocket, no There is not one penny And all of them so-called friends SongtexteI'm trying to tell, y'all That you haven't got any But, yeah, and just as soon As you get back on your feet again People, i'm tryin' to tell you That here they come Tellin' you all They're your long lost friend Oh but i'm tryin' to tell everybody Lord, without a doubt That nobody wants you Nobody wants you, no no Nobody wants you, no Nobody needs tou, nobody wants you When you're down and out, lord And nobody says a good thing about you And nobody can tell you when to turn And when to go...
