Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out - B.B. King (雷利·金)[00:00:00]
I once lived the life of a millionaire[00:00:22]
Spending my money I didn't care[00:00:30]
Always taking my friends out for a good time[00:00:38]
Buying champagne, gin and wine[00:00:46]
But just as soon as my dough got low[00:00:55]
I couldn't find a friend, no place I go[00:01:03]
If I ever get my hands on a dollar again[00:01:12]
I'm gonna squeeze it, and squeeze it till the eagle grins[00:01:20]
Nobody knows you, when you're down and out[00:01:28]
In your pocket, not one penny[00:01:44]
And your friends, you haven't any[00:01:51]
And as soon as you get on your feet again[00:02:01]
Everybody is your long lost friend[00:02:08]
It's mighty strange, without a doubt, but[00:02:17]
Nobody wants you, when you're down and out[00:02:25]
You know folks, I once had a mansion[00:02:36]
Way up on the side of a hill[00:02:39]
I'd give champagne and caviar parties[00:02:42]
Just for fun and they get a thrill[00:02:45]
But you know things they just can't stay like that forever[00:02:49]
And now I can't muscle up enough money to buy a shot of gin[00:02:55]
But you know, if I ever get my hands on a dollar again[00:03:04]
I'm gonna squeeze it, and squeeze it till the eagle grins[00:03:12]
It's mighty strange, without a doubt[00:03:22]
Nobody wants you[00:03:30]
Nobody needs you[00:03:31]
Nobody wants you, when you're down and out[00:03:38]
