Billy Joel Uptown Girl Lyrics

Uptown Girl Lyrics

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 ith 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 biys
She's got a choice

Uptown girl
You
know I can't afford to but 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
