Uptown Girl


Uptown girl
She's been living
in her uptown world
I bet she never
had a back street guy
I bet her mama
never told her why
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 she's 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
And 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 boys
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 of guy I've been
And then I'll win
And when she's walking
She's looking so fine
And when she's talking
She'll say that she's mine
She'll say I'm not so tough
Just because
I'm in love
With and uptown girl
She's been living
in her white bread world
As long as anyone
with hot blood can
And now she's looking
for 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 in love
With an uptown girl
