Nobody Knows You When You're Down & Out Lyrics - Janis Joplin

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
