Lyric Wanderin /Nobody Knows You When You re Down And Out
My daddy is an engineer, my brother drives a hack
My sister pulls in washing, the baby balls the jack
And it looks like I m never gonna cease my wanderin
I been wanderin early and late
New York City to the Golden Gate
And it looks like I m never gonna cease my wanderin
Snakes in the ocean, eels in the sea
A red headed woman made a wreck a me
And it looks like I m never gonna cease my wanderin
Nobody knows you when you re down and out
In your pocket, not one penny
and your friends you know you haven t any
If I ever get my hands on a dollar again
I m gonna hold onto it til George Washington grins
It s mighty strange without a doubt
Nobody wants you when you re down and out
My sister pulls in washing, the baby balls the jack
And it looks like I m never gonna cease my wanderin
I been wanderin early and late
New York City to the Golden Gate
And it looks like I m never gonna cease my wanderin
Snakes in the ocean, eels in the sea
A red headed woman made a wreck a me
And it looks like I m never gonna cease my wanderin
Nobody knows you when you re down and out
In your pocket, not one penny
and your friends you know you haven t any
If I ever get my hands on a dollar again
I m gonna hold onto it til George Washington grins
It s mighty strange without a doubt
Nobody wants you when you re down and out
