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
My uptown girl
You know I#m in love
With an uptown girl
My uptown girl
