Clapton, Eric - Nobody Knows You When You're Down And Out Lyrics
Once I lived the life of a millionaire,
Spent all my money, didn't have any care.
Took all my friends out for a mighty good time,
Bought bootleg liquor, champagne and wine.
Lost all my good friends, had nowhere to go.
I get my hands on a dollar again,
I'll hang on to it 'til that old eagle grins.
Because nobody loves you
When you're down and out.
In your pocket, not one penny,
And as for friends... you don't have many.
When you get back on your feet again,
I said it straight without any doubt,
Nobody knows you when you're down and out.
Oh, nobody knows you
When you're down and out.
In your pocket, not one penny,
And as for friends... you don't have many.
When you get back on your feet again,
Everybody wants to be your long-lost friend.
I said it straight without any doubt,
Nobody knows you,
Nobody knows you,
Nobody knows you when you're down and out.

So true, when I was living the life of money, it was fine, when you have been kind and have a major fall in life your no where. Until you get back to where you were. People are fast to forget!
Everyone keeps talking about what a badass musician he is. Not enough people talk about his smooth easy listening badass voice!
quien subtituló esto?? macri!??
the beginning is so similar to you’ve got a friend in me hahahahaha I thought it was a toy story song
thats when you know your real friends! The ones who sticks with you when you are in the shit hole
Yes, completely lifted from Scrapper. Whore today, lover yesterday.
How true this is! 😉🙏
was looking for any cover of the original, shouldve guessed Clapton made one... what a legend.
Fantastic
El título no es lo que dice ser :-(
Arrepiante!
Ray cooper getting good money for a bit.of pointlessness again. He was everywhere back in the day
Once I lived the life of a millionaire,
Spent all my money, didn't have any care.
Took all my friends out for a mighty good time,
Bought bootleg liquor, champagne and wine.
Then I began to fall so low,
Lost all my good friends, had nowhere to go.
If I get my hands on a dollar again,
I'll hang on to it till that ol' eagle grins.
Because nobody knows you
When you're down and out.
In your pocket not one penny,
And as for friends, you don't have any.
When you get back on your feet again,
Everybody wants to be your long-lost friend.
I said it straight, without any doubt,
Nobody knows you when you're down and out.
(Solo)
Lord, nobody knows you
When you're down and out.
In your pocket not one penny,
And as for friends, you don't have any.
When you get back on your feet again,
Everybody wants to be your long-lost friend.
I said it straight, without any doubt,
Nobody knows you (Nobody knows you)
Nobody knows you (Nobody knows you)
Nobody knows you when you're down and out.
Thank you thank you thank you for posting the lyrics; It's been so so long that i looked for it. Good blesse you guy.
Too fast too he played it like jazz not blues like the original that's why this is 3minutes long and the original is 5m
He ruined the lyric groove I really don't like it
My mate came over my house and put this song on, I've been addicted to it ever since.
Jim Carrey on guitar also? Jesus he's a talented dude
Scrapper blackwell is the best version.
best photo this year !
Éric Clapton one of my favorite singer !
Es gibt zwei überwältigende Versionen von "Nobody knows you...": die eine ist von Jose Feliciano in seinem Konzert im Londoner Palladium von 1969, und die andere ist diese hier. Danke an zwei grandiose Musiker mit ihren ebenso großartigen Begleitern.
Christoph Kirschhöfer aus Aachen
The all set is amazing..
Jose Feliciano hace una gran version blues en el LP "En Vivo-Alive Alive o" en London Palladium 1969. Jose increible guitarrista
정말 좋은 곡.
I love this version very much.
Very Bluesy
June 2019 anyone?
September
I'll come back next month
October!
December
Eddie Vedder on the keys.
Andy Fairweather Low is very underrated. A wonderful guitarist.
Is it juste me le the song is faster
I used to have a shit of friends... now I'm down and out... nobody knows me. Don't worry it's gonna happen to you also.
U still down n out bro?
@Lovecraft's Watermelon of Knowledge aint something you lose, aint that the blues
Thank you to this song for helping me through tough times. This song is a jewel no matter if it's Clapton or Blackwell.
I didn't know Billy Connoly could play the piano like that
you can check out a guitarist by the way he / she masters the acoustic. clapton is indeed one of the greatest bluesmen of the 20th century. so laid back and on point. i prefer one clapton to a million of those shredders who play a million notes per second.... without any feel. live forever, eric ! 🔮
Gracias por la info man
Does anybody know if there is score somewhere on the net for the piano as played in this song? (Not the piano-vocal-guitar sheet music) Im happy to pay...
What a greatly played acoustic solo!
a good version
vim pelo cifra club
Why is the schizoid your profile pic?
J ai eu des frissons
Here´s my favorite version. The original: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=626pNZB8xXE
What was the next song? 3:47 🤔
Once the story of my life, but everything around in my later years in all the best ways. Life so good now. Great song ….
Good for you.
Always loved this song. Truth, it seems. But out of nowhere, sometimes real friends come.
Bessie Smith's version is still the best of all time.
He'd know as a former coke snorter
That’s a poor attempt at wit right there. Failing badly too, I hasten to add. You think you’re witty, but you’re only half right . . . Get it? Half-wit.
Performed this song for my choir class a couple of days ago, thought I’d get in trouble for saying the “bootleg liquor, champagne, and wine” line but I sang it anyways.
If you'd got in trouble for that it would've been ridiculous
De la cantante de blues Bessie Smith...pura realidad.
one hundred years. and it s still true.
for me, the best unplugged of all time.
& and one of the best live album, if not the best !
@Thomas. Waiting for Columbus, Mad Dogs and Englishmen and Last Waltz are all strong contenders!
@Thomas.Don't forget about Deep Purple "Made In Japan" that's an amazing live album as well.
Sir Eric Clapton. Why that has not happened is beyond me 🤷♀️
Scrapper Blackwell.
👍🎶
Yes, from 1925. He was awesome. So clear that Mr. Clapton loved and revered blues players from the other side of the Pond.
@Vijaya Sundaram too bad he doesn't usually give credit where it's due.
@Vijaya Sundaram Every great Britain guitar player (Page, Richards, Clapton) say that the first song they learned was Crossroads.
Never thought I would say this, but Scrapper plays the acoustic guitar better than Clapton.
That for the most part is TRUE
i miss those times
What a talent Clapton is, and what's more he just gets better with age in my humble opinion
Nadie te conoce cuando estás completamente arruinado
Así es la vida, linda
Subtítulos hechos con el culo
Horrible traducción al español.
exactamente, le ha cambiado totalmente el sentido a la canción
Nada más cierto q lo q dice esta canción, cuando uno está bien todos son tus amigos, pero cuando ya no tienes nada te quedas solo, y empiezas a molestar donde antes eras bienvenido
I like how Clapton is fingerpickin the rythem and then just casually grabs the pick for the solo.
He had a thumb pick
Love/ truth <3 Love you Eric /always and forever <3 xo
Dylan rieder gravis comercial .
Love this version. Ain't that the truth. This day and age. I have zero friends. When you don't have coin, nobody gives you any love. Makes no sense. Peace
Elu UniStargazincorn hi
Music loves u
Scrapper Blackwell did it better
They're both good, but I agree.
Otis Redding did it best
@myke nax says the keeper of information. I'll check it out..
DIFFERENT ...why does everything have to be better !! different artist .
@today is not yesterday every video you go on it's somebody saying this is the best
Version espagnole car, parce que sûr un billet ce n'est plus encore.
Mais heureusement que les wagons sont tous attachés.
The solo always gets me..love his voice too
How true....
Is it not the truth?
Cat Walker absolutely the truth
most terrible translation. Beautiful song, great instruments, riffs are
great but the translation must go

Once I lived the life of a millionaire,
Spent all my money, I just did not care.
Took all my friends out for a good time,
Bought bootleg liquor, champagne and wine.
Then I began to fall so low,
Lost all my good friends, I did not have nowhere to go.
I get my hands on a dollar again,
I'm gonna hang on to it till that eagle grins.
'Cause no, no, nobody knows you
When you're down and out.
In your pocket, not one penny,
And as for friends, you don't have any.
When you finally get back up on your feet again,
Everybody wants to be your old long-lost friend.
Said it's mighty strange, without a doubt,
Nobody knows you when you're down and out.
When you finally get back upon your feet again,
Everybody wants to be your good old long-lost friend.
Said it's mighty strange,
Nobody knows you,
Nobody knows you,
Nobody knows you when you're down and out.
Solid advice right there! Haha
Not exactly accurate but close enough
So true !!!

Mala traducción...
I don't understand why you spanish need the subtitles of a song
Hola amigo. Que pregunta tan marica. Saludos desde Australia y te digo que nobody knows a second language as @NicoSlash2011 said.
The Scalabs Music Channel .....so they can understand the lyrics?
Dimerra but what's the point... you can't understand the lyrics and a song rarely makes sense when translated
Brandon Keller man there's a whole demographic of westerners that enjoy K-pop music and don't understand a word of it haha. And they don't even get English subs haha. Translation errors are a big thing though for sure
Don't worry, neither do they.
You know better than that Eric.
For you dennis. . .R.I.P. xxx
Every soft hearted child who want's to help people should learn the message of this song when they are young.
I would say this song is for the hard-hearted! A way to soften their hearts.
Agora com o também SENSACIONAL, Eric Clapton!
Best version of this song
this cassette, bonnie rait nick of time cassette and randy Travis I'm gonna love you forever...bought in FBX Ak 1989, road trip with the eventual mother of my kids.... Jack brownfield was my neighbor in Anchorage, he died in 92ish and I played this over and over. I was one of his few friends. I good hearted guy. worked at sears. was lonely as could be. so we made sure to give him our time. that's American values kids. like helping immigrants. fear is the base of hate. be not afraid of any person. if you walk the talk then its a good day to die..✌😁👀👽💨🙈🙉🙊
ron jeremy on keyboard!
he is a beast!!!
if I could play piano 1/2 as good as the dude er...I'd play all day & just amaze my damn self!.lol...dude rocks!
It just goes to show you, Big E.C. does a kick ass job picking out his band members...
PatrickAllenNL not bad
In fact, you bet, he played all day long so many times to be able to play like that.
Nice Michael, nice. 😄
my favorite song from the album.
14 people down and out :(
more like 5 billion...
a blue like this,oh God!!! so sweet!!
clapton es dios!!!
Sad, but true my friends..sad but true.
Oh. Yes,its so true. Greetings from Hungary!
Amazing version. The combination of the acoustic guitar, blues piano riffs, and gospel girls in the background is perfect.
Johnny Coull n
Yeah its its almost a parlour piano as well, which I think adds an extra charm to the jam
Ninguno interpreta essas musicas como el Clapton///
Pésima traducción, arruina completamente el sentido de la canción. Si vas a hacer algo, hazlo bien o mejor no lo hagas.
Los que se quejan de la traducción por qué no señalan los errores. También les digo: Obviamente no vieron las traducciones usuales en YT. La mayoría no son ni la mitad de buena que ésta.
Unplugged de unpluggeds
Muy bien dicho.

Favoriet nummer, oorspronkelijk uit de jaren 20.
