When I Get Low, I Get High - Ella Fitzgerald My fur coat's sold, alone, ain't it cold But I'm not gonna holler 'cause I still got a dollar And when I get low, I get high. My man walked out, now you know that ain't right Well he better watch out if I meet him tonight I said when I get low, I get high. All the hard luck in this town has found me. Nobody knows how trouble goes round and round me. I'm all alone with no one to pet me. That old rocking chair ain't never gonna get me 'Cause when I get low, I get high. When I get low, I get high.
