Once I lived the life of a millionaire
Spending my money honey, I didn´t care
Taking my friends out for a mighty good time
I drank that good gin, champagne and wine

Just as soon as my money got low
I couldn´t find no friends
And I had no place to go
If I ever get my hands on a dollar again
I´m gonna hold on to it till that eagle grins

Cause I found out that nobody wants you
Nobody wants you when they find out
That you´re down and out
In your pocket, there´s not not one penny
And as for friends, you don´t have any

Just let you get back up on your feet again
Here they all come telling you
Their your old long-lost friend
And this I wanna tell you and about it I have no doubt
Nobody wants you

Nobody needs you
Nobody wants when you´re down and out
