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 and 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
