Song lyrics
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 going to 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 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,
She's my uptown girl,
You know I'm in love
With an uptown girl
Uptown Girl
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 going to 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 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,
She's my uptown girl,
You know I'm in love
With an uptown girl
