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 gonna try for an uptown girl
she's been living in her with bread world
as long an anyone withe 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 lime
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 up town girl
you know i've seen her in her up town world
she's getting tired of her high class toys
and all her presents from her up town boys
she's got a choice
up town girl
you know i can't afford to by her pearls but maybe somday when my ship comes in
she'll undestand 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's say that she's mine
she'll say i'm not so tough
just because
i'm in love
with and up town girl
she's been living in her white bread world
as long an anoyne withe hot blood can
and now she's looking for a downtown man
that's what i am
up town girl she's my up town girl
you know i'm in love
with an up town girl...
