Who’s gonna tell you, when it’s too late? Who’s gonna tell you things aren’t so great? You can’t go on, thinkin’ nothin’s wrong Who’s gonna drive you home tonight?
Who’s gonna pick you up, when you fall? Who’s gonna hang it up, when you call? Who’s gonna pay attention to your dreams? Who’s gonna plug their ears, when you scream?
You can’t go on, thinkin’ nothin’s wrong Who’s gonna drive you home tonight?
Who’s gonna hold you down, when you shake? Who’s gonna come around, when you break?
You can’t go on, thinkin’ nothin’s wrong Who’s gonna drive you home tonight? Ohh, you know, you can’t go on, thinkin’ nothin’s wrong Who’s gonna drive you home tonight?
Uptown girl 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 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
She knows I’ve seen her in her uptown world. She’s getting tired of her high class toys And all the presents from her uptown boys She’s got a choice.
Ooooooooooooooooooooooh Ooooooooooooooooooooooh
Uptown girl You know I can’t afford to buy her pearls. But maybe some day 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 see 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 My uptown girl You know I’m in love with an uptown girl My uptown girl You know I’m in love with an uptown girl My uptown girl You know I’m in love with an uptown girl…
