Billy Joel - Kohuept (Live)

Uptown Girl - Live in Moscow & Leningrad, Russia - July/August 1987

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

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 (uptown girl)
She's been living in her white-bread world (white-bread world)
As long as anyone with hot blood can (hot blood can)
And now she's looking for a downtown man (downtown man)
That's what I am

And when she knows (and when she knows)
What she wants from her time (wants from her time)
When she wakes up (she wakes up)
And makes up her mind (makes up her mind)

She'll see I'm not so tough
Just because
I'm in love with an uptown girl (uptown girl)
She's been moving in her in her uptown world (uptown world)
She's getting tired of her high-class toys (high-class toys)
And all her presents from her uptown boys (uptown boys)
She's got a choice

Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-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
Maybe someday when my ship comes in
She'll understand what kind of guy I've been (I've been)
And then I'll win

And when she's walking
She's looking so fine
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

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

Uptown girl (uptown girl)
She's my uptown girl (uptown girl)
You know I'm in love
With an up-uptown girl
My uptown girl (uptown girl)
You know I'm in love
With an up-uptown girl
My uptown girl (uptown girl)
Know I'm in love
With an up-uptown girl
My uptown girl (uptown girl)
Yeah, ooh
