Nobody Wants You When You're Down and Our Lyrics
Hmmm, mmmm, mmmm
Oh yeah.
Hmmm, hmmm, hmmm.
Once I lived the life of millionaire.
Spending my money, honey,
Oh, I didn't care.
Taking my friends out for a mighty good time
Drinking that good gin, champagne and wine.
Awww, just as soon as my money got low,
Couldn't find my friends and i had no place to go.
But if ever get my hands on a dollar again,
I believe I'll hold on to that eager grin, 'cause I found out
Nobody wants you when you're down and out.
Nobody wants you when you're down and out.
Down and out.
Oh yeah.
Hmmm, mmmm.
Wait a minute.
When in your pocket there's not one penny,
Old man and good friend,
I'm telling you to find out if I haven't got any.
But as soon as I get up on my feet again,
Here they all come telling you,
"Boy, these are your long-lost friends."
Nobody wants you when you're down and out.
Let me tell you about it.
Ahhhhh, nobody wants you now down and out.
Down and out.
Nobody wants ya.
Whoa, oh, oh, oh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I don't mean to take up too much of your time,
But I thought I'd drop this line.
Nobody wants ya.
It seems nobody wants ya.
Nobody wants ya.
Yeah, nobody wants you now,
You down and out.
I feel I'm gonna do...Whoo...Whoa.
Oh yeah.
Hmmm, hmmm, hmmm.
Spending my money, honey,
Oh, I didn't care.
Taking my friends out for a mighty good time
Drinking that good gin, champagne and wine.
Couldn't find my friends and i had no place to go.
But if ever get my hands on a dollar again,
I believe I'll hold on to that eager grin, 'cause I found out
Nobody wants you when you're down and out.
Down and out.
Oh yeah.
Hmmm, mmmm.
Wait a minute.
Old man and good friend,
I'm telling you to find out if I haven't got any.
But as soon as I get up on my feet again,
Here they all come telling you,
"Boy, these are your long-lost friends."
Let me tell you about it.
Ahhhhh, nobody wants you now down and out.
Down and out.
Nobody wants ya.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I don't mean to take up too much of your time,
But I thought I'd drop this line.
Nobody wants ya.
It seems nobody wants ya.
Nobody wants ya.
Yeah, nobody wants you now,
You down and out.
I feel I'm gonna do...Whoo...Whoa.
