Nobody Knows You When You`re Down And Out — текст песни (Rod Stewart)

(Jimmie Cox)

Once I lived the life
of a millionaire
Spending my money
Oh I didn`t care
Taking my friends out
For a mighty good time
Oh we`d drink that good gin
Champagne and wine

But oh just as soon
As my money got low
I couldn`t find nobody
And I had no place to go
And if I ever get my hands
On a dollar again
I`m gonna hold on
Till the eagle wins
Cause I found out

Nobody wants you
When you`re down and out
Nobody wants you
When you`re down and out

Lord have mercy

Yeah, yeah, now listen
Now in your pocket
There`s not one penny
And all of them good friends
You found out you haven`t got any
Nobody come around
But the landlord and the taxman
Your ex-wife who says
She wants more alimony
Then there`s a knock on the door
And it`s a woman you don`t know
Says she`s having your baby
She`ll walk on in

But oh just as soon
as the money roll in
Here they all come sayings
That they`re you`re long lost friends
But if I ever get my hands
On a dollar again
I believe, I believe I`ll hold on
Till the eagle wins
Cause I found out

Nobody wants you
When you`re down and out
Nobody wants you
When you`re down and out

Nobody wants you
When you`re down and out
Nobody wants you
When you`re down and out

Nobody wants you
When you`re down and out
Nobody wants you
When you`re down and out

Nobody wants you
When you`re down and out
Nobody, nobody, nobody
