Billy Joel – Uptown Girl – 1983

    Paroles

    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-bred 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
    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
    Oh, oh, oh, oh
    Oh, oh, oh, oh
    Oh, oh, oh, oh
    Oh, oh, oh, oh

    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-bred world
    As long as anyone with hot blood can
    And now she’s looking for a downtown man
    That’s what I am
    Oh, oh, oh, oh
    Oh, oh, oh, oh
    Oh, oh, oh, oh
    Oh, oh, oh, oh

    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
