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, well
What about us
What about us
Don't want to 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 a ten-foot pole, well
What about us
What about us
Don't want to cause no fuss

But what about us
He goes to eat at the Ritz
Big steaks, that's the breaks
We eat 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 roller skates, well
What about us
What about us
Don't want to cause no fuss
But what about us
He goes to eat at the Ritz
Big steaks, that's the breaks
We eat 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 roller skates, well
What about us
What about us
Don't want to cause no fuss
But what about us
What about us
What about us
But what about us

The Coasters were formed in Los Angeles, California in 1955 by Carl Gardner (tenor) and Bobby Nunn (bass) after the split of doo wop group The Robins. Their collaboration with legendary songwriters Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller gave them a unique sound that was very humorous most of the time. Their first huge hit came with "Young Blood" and "Searching." They also had success with hits such as "Yakety Yak," "Charlie Brown," and "Little Egypt."
