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 Now I'm in love the uptown girl
She's my uptown girl Now I'm in love the uptown girl
She's my uptown girl Now I'm in love the uptown girl My uptown girl Now I'm in love the uptown uptown uptown Uptown uptown
