Uptown Girl Songtext / Lyric

Uptown girl

She's been livin' 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 livin' 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 walkin'

She's lookin' so fine

And when she's talkin'

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 livin' 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
