What About Us Songtext
von The Coasters

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 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 a ten-foot pole (well)

What about us?
What about us?
Don′t wanna 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 wanna 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 wanna cause no fuss
But what about us?

What about us?
What about us?
But what about us?
