when you’re down and out - bobby leecan lyrics

Loading...

now, i went downtown on broadway
looked up at a sign that said no free meals today
walked right in, i took a seat
waiter looked at me and said “hey, brother, pay up before you eat!”
i was raggedy, thirsty too
lice on my body was walking from two by two
in my pocket i didn’t have a cent
lice stayed down to see to where i went

now, you can see n0body needs you
oh, when you’re down and out
in your pocket you ain’t, ain’t got a dime
look all over town not a friend you can find

as soon as your money grows treetop tall
bill, jack and hannah, they’ll all give you a call
now listen now, brother, this ain’t no doubt
n0body wants you when you’re down and out
i mean on your last go around

now, i was feeling lonesome kinda blue
i thought i’d play some numbers likе most colored people do
i put my monеy down on old twenty two
i didn’t play no bolita, i thought that would do

as soon as i thought that i had won
the man put ol’ eleven said “two twenty one”
a friend of mine walked up to me the very next day
he said he lost on that number the very same way
now, you can see n0body needs you
oh, when you’re down and out
in your pocket you ain’t, ain’t got a dime
you look all over town not a friend can be found

as soon as your money grows treetop tall
bill, jack and harry, they’ll all give you a call
now, listen now, brother, this ain’t no doubt
n0body wants you when you’re down and out
i mean on your last go around
