Paroles
[Verse 1]
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!"

[Verse 2]`
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

[Verse 3]
Now, you can see nobody 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

[Chorus]
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
Nobody wants you when you're down and out
I mean on your last go round

[Verse 4]
Now, I was feeling lonesome kinda blue
I thought I'd play somе numbers like most colored pеople do
I put my money down on old twenty-two
I didn't play no Bolita, I thought that would do

[Verse 5]
As soon as I thought that I had won
The man put old 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

[Verse 6]
Now, you can see nobody 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

[Chorus]
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
Nobody wants you when you're down and out
I mean on your last go round
