The low rider is a little higher
Low rider, is a real goer
Low rider, is the one to meet, yeah
The low rider don't drive too fast
Take a little trip and see
Take a little trip, take a little trip
Take a little trip with me
Yep, the song is about the West Coast Low-riders, referring to the pimped out cars with lowered suspensions. But of course, there is also an undeniable marijuana-related element present in the song. It's particularly noticeable in the lines 'The low rider is a little higher' and 'The low rider drives a little slower'. Of course it's also referring to the fact that the low riders like to drive really slowly to parade around their vehicles, but there's also another group of people who like to drive slowly too. Great song in any case.
Isn't an old car good enough?
Something about a car.

This song is great. Eric Burdons voice is so sexy, he was great when he was the lead singer of The Animals too.
i love this song. the music is amazing. lol. it reminds me of the movie dazed and confused
anybody else always think of Cheech and Chong when they hear this song. Great driving song.
The song is about the West Coast Latino subculture. They were "Low Riders" due to the fact that they commonly drove lowered cars. Most of the band grew up in the Southern California area and were immersed in the "Low Rider" culture.
Anyways, great song.
