Uptown Girl

Uptown girl 

She's been living in her uptown world 

I bet she's never had a backstreet guy 

I bet her momma 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 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
