Nobody Loves You (When You`re Down And Out) lyrics

Artist  : John Lennon 
Song : Nobody Loves You (When You`re Down And Out)
 


Nobody loves you when you're down and
out
Nobody sees you when you're on cloud
nine
Everybody's hustlin' for a buck and a
dime
I'll scratch your back and you scratch
mine

I've been across to the other
side
I've shown you everything, I got nothing
to hide
And still you ask me do I love you,
what it is, what it is
All I can tell you is
it's all show biz
All I can tell you is it's
all show biz

Nobody loves you when you're
down and out
Nobody knows you when you're on
cloud nine
Everybody's hustlin' for a buck and
a dime
I'll scratch your back and you knife
mine

I've been across the water now so
many times
I've seen the one eyed witchdoctor
leading the blind
And still you ask me do I
love you, what you say, what you say
Everytime
I put my finger on it, it slips away
Everytime
I put my finger on it, it slips away

Well
I get up in the morning and I'm looking in the
mirror to see, ooo wee!
Then I'm lying in the
darkness and I know I can't get to sleep, ooo
wee!

Nobody loves you when you're old and
grey
Nobody needs you when you're upside
down
Everybody's hollerin' 'bout their own
birthday
Everybody loves you when you're six
foot in the ground
