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

(Uptown girl)

She's been living

In her white bread world

(White bread world)

As long as anyone

With hot blood (hot blood can)

Can and now she's looking

For a downtown man

(Downtown man)

That's what I am

And when she knows what

She wants from her time

(From her time, yeah)

And when she wakes up

And makes up her mind

She'll (She'll)

See I'm not so tough

Just because

I'm in love with

An uptown girl

(Uptown girl)

You know I've seen

Her in her uptown world

(Uptown world)

She's getting tired

Of her high class toys

(High class toys)

And all her presents

From her uptown boys

(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 (in)

She'll understand what

Kind of guy I've been (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 (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

(Uptown girl)

She's my uptown girl

(Uptown girl)

You know I'm in love

With an uptown girl

(Uptown girl)

My uptown girl

(Uptown girl)

You know I'm in love

With an uptown girl

(Uptown girl)

She's my uptown girl

Don't you know I'm in love

With an uptown girl?

(Uptown girl)

My uptown girl

(Uptown girl)

Don't you know I'm in love

With an uptown girl?

(Uptown girl)

She's my uptown girl

Don't you know I'm in love

With an uptown girl?
