Uptown girl
|
She's been living in her uptown world
|
I bet she never had a backstreet 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
|
