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
(Uptown girl)
she's been living in
Her white bread world
(white bread world)
As long as anyone
with hot blood can
(Hot blood 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~~
And when she
wakes up and
Make up her
mind~~
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 girl
(Uptown girl)
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
Oh oh oh

Uh uh uh uh

Oh oh oh

Uh uh uh uh

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 (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
