Uptown girl She's been living in her uptown world I bet she never had a back street guy I bet mama never told her
I'm gonna try for an uptown girl She's been living in her white bread world As long as anyone with hot blood can And now looking for a downtown man That's what I am
And when she knows what She wants from her time And when she wakes up makes up her mind
She'll see I'm not so tough Just because I'm in love with an uptown girl You know I've seen her in her uptown world She's getting tired of her high class toys And all her presents from her uptown She's got a choice
Uptown girl You know I can't afford to buy her pearls But maybe someday when my ship comes in She'll understand what kind guy I've been And then I'll win
And when she's walking looking so fine And when she's talking She'll say that she's mine
She'll say I'm not so tough because I'm in love With an uptown girl She's been living in her white bread world As long as anyone with hot blood can And now she's looking a downtown man That's what I am
Uptown girl She's my uptown girl You know I'm in love With an uptown girl
My uptown girl You know I'm in love With an uptown girl My uptown girl You know I'm love With an uptown girl My uptown girl
