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 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
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.
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.
She's my uptown girl.
You know I'm in love with an uptown girl.
My uptown girl.
