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
Uptown girl my uptown girl
Uptown girl my uptown girl
Uptown girl my uptown girl
