Low Rider is a song written by the band War and appearing on their album Why Can't We Be Friends?, released in 1975. It reached number one on the Billboard R&B charts and peaked at number 35 on the Pop Singles chart.

According to the All Music Guide review of the song, "the lyric takes the cool image of the low rider — the Chicano culture practice of hydraulically hot-rodding classic cars — and using innuendo, extends the image to a lifestyle". The song's most distinguishable feature is its driving bass line, which is present for nearly all of the song.

The writers and performers of "Low Rider" have formed the Lowrider Band. The band consists of Lee Oskar, Howard E. Scott, B.B. Dickerson and Harold Brown.
