The Coasters - Get an ugly girl to marry you

[diuga1]

In what year was this cool tune first released to stores in the USA? 1963?

[Sternococktail]

This is originally an old calypso - there are an older version here on youtube with the composer(?) - a litte hard to get the the woords in the west indian idiom, though. Roaring Lion - Ugly Woman (1934) Nice creole brass.

[Mike70690]

The Coasters never did this song it is Jimmy Soul

[TVdude1337]

This song opened my eyes, thats for sure

[LaGioiella]

Another misogynistic song.

[fishstory]

THIS IS THE LATE, GREAT, JIMMY SOUL - GIVE CREDIT WHERE IT'S DUE!

[beaumontsonny]

This is not the Coasters.However if you want to listen to a great Coaster song try "Zing went the strings of my heart" Beautiful harmony.

[beaumontsonny]

Some one is mixing up the labels and photos this is not the Coasters this is Jimmy Soul

[elamite66]

I bought this 45 in NY in 1963 I believe and you can't beat it with a stick Great classic Yeah Jimmy had soul

[LittleFawn60]

Jimmy Soul not coasters

[doowaditti]

I don't know if I could go through that to be happy.....love the song!!!!!!

[ironmaidenfan7788]

i cant stop listening to this song. im so glad i found it

[robbsnyder3]

The drums & bass on this track are bad ass!

[foodlover518]

i love this song. Whoever dislike likes this is probably is blind, deaf, has no music sense,or is just plain loser!!!

[Thatcrazedtroll35]

@foodlover518 I'm an expert on trolls, he must be also racist/forever alone/ or born with the deficiency to *like* things.

[foodlover518]

@Thatcrazedtroll35 Nice... ;)

[21sttnmemphis]

HAHAHAHA. Man talking about man's wife. Old school rules

It won't work today because ugly girls have attitudes thinking they all that

[MrWrongoStarr]

Unfortunately, this is not the Coasters. It's Jimmy Soul

[ChaseChafin]

@MrWrongoStarr I was just thinking that.

[MrWrongoStarr]

I want this song to be played at my eulogy

[xxxEMINENTxxx]

The dislike bar is as long as kim kardashians marriage.

[bkiknorite]

Marry a girl that used to be fat.

[cinejan]

Omg. These posts are ridiculous. Dumb is dumb. How dumb are men? Well, the song says it all: don't have a mind and you will be happy.

[captainpanic08]

My cousin had this song played at his wedding. Which I thought was kinda mean.

[jor99912]

The back ground sounds like it was sampled from JIMMY SOUL! I assumed Jimmy Soul recorded it first! Never heard this before by the coasters! I guess it really is Jimmy Soul! The Coasters be JIVING, But they be Jamming! They were better than this!

[TheCeojoe]

This is not the Coasters.

[montseret1]

@TheCeojoe You are so right!! This is Jimmy Soul, not The Coasters.



[Oldguard900]

@montseret1 Thank you. I was scratching me head over The Coasters.....

[playmobilfriends]

this song is by Jimmy Soul ...NOT the coasters

[montseret1]

@playmobilfriends You are absolutely right ! I have the Jimmy Soul and this is it.

[GeorgiaRain21]

41 people made a pretty woman their wife

[sugarlumps73]

lol what a name for a song

[BeingSuperAwesome]

i spent 5 mins trying to remember what this song was haha im so glad i found it i miss it!

[deadair789]

[903davesharonpoky]

Heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy what a rip off!!

[RockyMountainHighCO]

So funny

[bagruen]

If I were you, I'd delete this post and re post it with the correct artist to save you further embarrassment.

[bagruen]

We would think you would check a little bit on such a popular song as this to have your information correct. It is OBVIOUSLY Jimmy Soul, not the Coasters.

[fivesecondsonly]

I was looking forward to the Coasters singing this song that would have been rare. Poor job labeling the song.

[TheWally243]

Who 's in charge of removing mis-labeled vids thier not doing the job.

[pinochlada]

The song that is playing is Jimmy Soul's 'If You Wanna Be Happy'. This video should be removed for false labeling.

[gldsr621]

Not the Coasters!

[The19Chris77]

Hey beauty is skin deep . But Ugly is to the bone .

[bobctwin314]

@The19Chris77 When beauty fades away old ugly holds her own.

[bobctwin314]

@The19Chris77 

[rockaroundtheclock56]

looks are just skin deep she should have a beautiful soul at least

[The19Chris77]

@rockaroundtheclock56 all jokes aside , your right. It is about the what the person is and not the looks. I always say Id rather have a shiny nickel than a rusty dime.

[musicmuse202]

@The19Chris77 I think what you meant was you'd rather have a rusty dime than a shiny nickel....

[The19Chris77]

@musicmuse202 No . I would rather have a woman who is not as good looking but knows how to be a woman. Rather then some high maintnence chick that thinks she is too good for everyone. Now grant it. Not all Women who have the looks are like that,. But I would not be able to deal with that kind of a woman.

[MaulqasmPK]

@The19Chris77 Kick her ass

[rfrnet]

this song always makes me smile. i'm smiling right now.

[DragonFromRI]

Very cool song, I recall this song when I was a kid and it seems to be true. Nevertheless, they say a great looking girl will only make you cry. Well I dont care, I will cry! Still, a great song and the coasters had it going on!

[Superluminal100]

But keep a pretty girl on the side.

[ikuikosama]

This song makes me happy, its too catchy, OMG I sing this and bounce around. LOL making myself dizzy!

[793willieb]

It's not true. Marrying an ugly woman could turn a straight man gay. "I took a pass when she grew a wort... When she slept she would grouse and snort... I told her one day I just had to abort... And take her sister on the long train north..."

[TheLjchop]

Jimmy i first heard this song when i was 4,now in 33 the coaster get better and better with time.music these days dont compare to the oldiei love it.need more good music like this

[yamahonkawazuki]

@TheLjchop this isnt hte coasters but i agree

[TheLjchop]

Jimmy i first heard this song when i was 4,now in 33 the coaster get better and better with time.music these days dont compare to the oldiei love it

[sweetdee1959]

LOL....LOL...LOL

[thedeli3434]

@sweetdee1959 who who who

[sweetdee1959]

@thedeli3434 LOL..This song makes me smile!!!! I think you understand!! LOL

[aclark141]

The truth of the matter is you can't judge a woman by her looks, really, you have to see beyond her physical appearance.

[TheLifePerfect]

The thing is, you get a girl YOU think is hot but SHE thinks she's ugly. Simple.

[mysticjaz]

@TheLifePerfect You're a very wise man!

[frank02111]

@TheLifePerfect Thanks for your advise. It is the best I have heard on relationshiops . Are you a girl ?

[TheLifePerfect]

@frank02111 No, but I am a lesbian.

[frank02111]

@TheLifePerfect I grew up in jamacia Plain,Ma. it is a suburb of Boston<Ma. often called the Lesbian capital of the east coast. So I have known many lesbians growing up on occasin some would fulllfill my male lebeto needs when Iwas young. You say you are not a women however every lesbian that I ever knew and the ones I know now are all girls. I was only shooked at the one who shot and almost killed Andy Warhol. Movie came out ayear ago. She wrote a play call SKUM -Society to kill males ?

[TheLifePerfect]

@frank02111 haha, I wasn't expecting an Andy Warhol reference. But no. It's just a thing I say.

[TheWitchking123]

@TheLifePerfect Its ALSO the other way round! xD

[TheLifePerfect]

@TheWitchking123 So you get a girl you think is ugly but she thinks she's hot? I dunno, TheWitchking123 you may be doing it wrong.

[TheWitchking123]

@TheLifePerfect LMAO NO DUMBASS!! XDD..I mean if you were a girl..AND the thing is you get a boy YOU think is hot but HE thinks hes ugly! Simple lol!! :D

[TheLifePerfect]

@TheWitchking123 Ohhhh, right. That makes a lot more sense anyhow.

[AzucaNegra16]

It is very simple to edit the title. But since it hasn't been done in almost three years, it's not likely to happen.

[BENNYGPRODUCTIONS]

R.I.P carl

[CommanderRZ]

great arrangement...cool

[dittoheadAZ]

Jimmy Soul!

[444Bam]

c'mon now, this is Jimmy Soul = get yo shit 2gether MAN!

[zeemmou2476]

the coasters sang this the (artis) is the main singer the coasters did the parts like

(i saw your wife shed ugly/yea but she sure can cook

[z0mby]

loooooool the coasters

[tcas49]

Wrong title & wrong artist

[pziebold]

take down this video. wrong artist. real artist is jimmy soul.

[batwayne62]

This is NOT the Coasters, this is JIMMY SOUL

[frank02111]

I never had the guts to get married My brother married this ausome fox 20 yrs ago now he seems to bee misserable. I should of listen to my thearpist all women loose their looks i quess this song is somewhat true. Well I am now 51 a navy vet and I am still liviving like a sailor at sea once in a while I get a hooker no strings attached andit is almost always great sex!!!

[StormyOktober]

@frank02111 You realize that men lose their looks too? I'm sure your dashing good looks aren't far from the window, fool.

[Koener]

@frank02111 : And it is way cheaper !

[bacardipr05]

@frank02111 The worse is when someone gets married just to get married just for the sake of it. Doesnt matter who it is as long as they wanna get married. i had a friend who met some ugly fat chic off a dateline moved her in 3 weeks later, married her shortly after that...I had to stop talking to him though too much nonsense...this girl would slap him, didnt do dishes or clean, or laundry and just basically sat there on phone watching Tv and eating

[vintageguits]

@frank02111 ......you're a real exapmle, sir

[best123of]

How I fucking hate people making up new random names for a song. Gtfo.

[fearlissimo]

Great song but as several posters have said, just isn't the Coasters. At all.

[redfirehands]

yup

[gothsesshomaru01]

i have been lied to. not cool.

[rockaroundtheclock56]

me too first. second time I married a stunner now I'm happy for the rest of my life

[robshannon]

This isn't The Coasters. This is Jimmy Soul!

[InaudibleSnow]

I KNOW WHO I COULD DEDICATE THIS SONG TO.. OMG IF I ONLY COULD.. TOO COOL

[kockoskorven]

True DAT!



[cake89]

thanks for uploading this, visiting the lemon party site just to listen to this song was attracting unwanted attention

[JeremyMcCracken]

That is *not* the Coasters

[southwriter]

This is Jimmy Soul from 1963. The Coasters' "Poison Ivy" is from 1959, and has nothing to do with this song.

[Paulpatine]

Lemon Party

[nc2ohio]

This is definitely an original by Jimmy Soul...that is actually him singing ....(**)

[ryanmerk11]

MR PRIMO IS MY BUS DRIVER!!! but he is not herr

[born2live]

[Nobama0000]

GREAT song!!!

[itsalovelydaytim]

[buttsock]

isnt this henry belafonte?

[verycoolsound]

What??? This has nothing to do with the Coasters. It is "If You Wanna Be Happy," by Jimmy Soul (1963).

[Nagneto]

@verycoolsound : I thought this sounded odd for the Coasters.

[GonzoGuyy]

@verycoolsound Yeah. It's def Jimmy Soul. NOT the Coasters

[yamahonkawazuki]

@verycoolsound someone prolly pulled it off of lime/frostwire or a torrent . at least this is here tho Eh?

[jsbach15]

@verycoolsound Yeah, you're correct verycoolsound! This isn't correct, and whatsup with the ad?!

[goose9100]

this is why i listen to like the 60s or the 70s or the 80s music instead of the crap that is music these days

[elamite66]

This is Jimmy Soul's Number 1 hit of 1963 on SPQR records I remember when it came out and bought the 45 I don't know of any connections with the Coasters but if there are any I'd like to know

[dragongourd]

love this song i need it on my radio!!!!!!!

[judeyorke]

This song is wayyyyyyyyyy to sweet! :D

[lsoltau01]

[GFRomaji]

She's ugly, but she sure can cook!

[henry01090905]

Jimmy Soul!!!

[MrHossCartwright]

It's a funny song (even sorta true) but I hate when guys act like a woman has to know how to cook in order to be a good wife. Cook your own food you lazy asses! LOL!

[CoolOnXBL]

@MrHossCartwright While I'm at work I expect a stay at home mom to cook for her family.

[OhSoNormal]

Eh! My family has perfected the back-handed compliment. He told me I'll make some poor sod miserable too. I told him it's a good thing I like girls too, no?

[dodaman22]

It doesn't work. I know because I tried it.

[phish378]

@dodaman22 You needed to go uglier.

[14Greekboy14]

[6000cat]

@Ricklawrence  This, I like! (and, I'm a woman) daughter of WWII Navy Dad.

[drealgrin]

[OhSoNormal]

I hate this song! My father always starts singing this song when he talks about my mother(they're divorcing and unhappy btw).

[jenbanter]

@OhSoNormal :( I'm sorry! That is sad. Actually, mean of him.

[jenbanter]

@OhSoNormal :( I'm sorry! That is sad. Actually, mean of him. ON THE OTHER HAND, tell him that because she is BEAUTIFUL, he didn't follow the song. Other wise, they would be happy.

[originalkillerguitar]

I did some gigs on Guitar with The Coasters in the 60's and this is definitely Jimmy Soul !!

[NARCOLEPTICpediphile]

this song kicks ass

[sleepytimegalz]

Definitely Jimmy Soul!! Love this!! I used to listen the this over and over....phyllis

[TJCATLOVER]

This definately is Jimmy Soul

[JimmyDeLocke]

Great song -- ". . . Her face is funny and her eyes don't match? take it from me she's a better catch. . . ." Immortal words of wisdom

[49kasey]

[onebiglepercon]

20 people married good looking people!

[MrGotsquashed]

I've heard this song before, but I didn't know the name. I have a best of The Coasters CD and wondered why it wasn't on there. I guess that's why. Jimmy Soul-'63.  At least I learned something new today. That's what I say- get an ugly girl, then you won't have to fight off dudes.?!

[jehcrazyjehcmy]

LMFAO this is some funny shit

[jarirusi]

It's Jimmy Soul indeed. This should be put right...

[MaryGak]

LOL!!!! Beautiful rythme!

[blaqnroro]

I'm married and I'm so happy!

[Ajak28Hype]

lol...this song prolly made a lot of ugly ass babies

[calihartley2010]

Nice time when people had morals and black people were not involved in drive by shootings and crime. They had problems like racism but atleat people had morals and music was good. Life too was great. better than today's world and crappy music.

[bestboitellem]

this song is so sweet

[Pinketuzz]

omg, seriously i heard this song like ore atleast the tune, its a classic on every great movie i was 5 im so glad i found it !!!!

[ggblueam]

This recording is not by the Coasters. The singer is Jimmy Soul. However, it's a good song with wise advice: leave those 'fly girls' alone. An ugly girl will keep you happy and satisfiedl! LOL

[Robbie80s]

Mermaids!!!!

[ILuvRickyNelson]

LMAO!!!!!!! This song rocks!!!!
