Down and Out Blues Songtext
von Scrapper Blackwell

Nobody knows me when I′m down and out
Nobody knows me when I'm down and out
If I ask them for a favour, they don′t know what it's all about

When I was down and in trouble, everybody forsakin' me
When I was down and in trouble, everybody forsakin′ me
Nobody knows the troubles that I do see


When you down and out, you ain′t got a friend in town
When you down and out, you ain't got a friend in town
And when I get money they begin to come around

Just as sure, baby, as one and one is two
Just as sure, baby, as one and one is two
Someday I′ll have money and be up to date like you

The sun's gonna shine in my back door someday
The sun is gonna shine in my back door someday
I′m down and out now, but I won't be down always
