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, wellWhat about us
What about us
Don't want to cause no fuss
But what about usHe's with a beautiful chick
Every night of the week, pretty slick
We're two poor hung up souls
Girls won't touch with a ten-foot pole, wellWhat about us
What about us
Don't want to cause no fuss
But what about usHe goes to eat at the Ritz
Big steaks, that's the breaks
We eat hominy grits
From a bag, what a dragHe'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 roller skates, wellWhat about us
What about us
Don't want to cause no fuss
But what about usHe goes to eat at the Ritz
Big steaks, that's the breaks
We eat hominy grits
From a bag, what a dragHe'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 roller skates, wellWhat about us
What about us
Don't want to cause no fuss
But what about usWhat about us
What about us
But what about us
