Uptown girl
I've been living in my uptown world
And I have never had a back street guy
Even my mama never told me why

He's gonna try for an uptown girl
I've been living in my white bread world
As long as anyone with hot blood can
And now I'm looking for a downtown guy
That's what he is

And when I know what
I want from my time
And when I wake up
And make up my mind

I'll see he's not so tough
Just because
He's in love with an uptown girl
You know he's seen me in my uptown world
I'm getting tired of my high class toys
And all my presents from my uptown boys
I've got a choice

Uptown girl
You know he can't afford to buy me pearls
But maybe someday when his ship comes in
I'll understand what kind of guy he's been
And then he'll win

And when I'm walking
I'm looking so fine
And when I'm talking
I'll say that he's mine

I'lll say he's not so tough
Just because
He's in love
With and uptown girl
I've been living in my white bread world
As long as anyone with hot blood can
And now I'm looking for a downtown guy
That's what he is

Uptown girl
I'm his uptown girl
You know he's in love
With an uptown girl

His uptown girl
You know I'm in love
With a back street guy
His uptown girl
You know he's in love
With an uptown girl
(I'm his uptown girl)
