Uptown girl |
|
She's been living in her uptown world |
|
I bet she never had a backstreet guy |
|
Bet her mamma 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 she 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 wakes up she makes up her mind |
|
She'll see 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 |
|
