The Coasters – What About Us lyrics
He's got a house made of glass
Got his own swimming pool (what a gas)
We've got a one-room shack
Five by six by the railroad track


[Chorus:]
(Well) what about us, what about us
Don't wanna cause no fuss
But what about us

He's with a beautiful chick
Every night of the week (pretty slick)
We're two poor hung up souls
Girls won't touch with ten foot poles

[Repeat chorus]

He goes to eat at the Ritz
Big steaks (that's the breaks)
We eat our hominy grits
From a bag (what a drag)

He's got a car made of suede
With a black leather top (got it made)
If we go out on dates
We go in a box on our roller skates

[Repeat chorus]

He goes to eat at the Ritz
Big steaks (that's the breaks)
We eat our hominy grits
From a bag (what a drag)

He's got a car made of suede
With a black leather top (got it made)
If we go out on dates
We go in a box on our roller skates

[Repeat chorus]

What about us, what about us...
