Uptown Girl Songtext / Lyric

Uptown girl she's been living in her uptown world
I bet she never had a backstreet 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

She knows I've seen her in her uptown world
she's getting tired of all her high-class toys
and all the 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
