Lyrics:

Nobody loves you when youre down and out

Nobody sees you when youre on cloud nine

Everybodys hustlin for a buck and a dime

Ill scratch your back and you scratch mine



Ive been across to the other side

Ive 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 its all show biz

All I can tell you is its all show biz



Nobody loves you when youre down and out

Nobody knows you when youre on cloud nine

Everybodys hustlin for a buck and a dime

Ill scratch your back and you knife mine



Ive been across the water now so many times

Ive 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 Im looking in the mirror to see, ooo wee!

Then Im lying in the darkness and I know I cant get to sleep, ooo wee!



Nobody loves you when youre old and grey

Nobody needs you when youre upside down

Everybodys hollerin bout their own birthday

Everybody loves you when youre six foot in the ground
