Uptown

Uptown - The Crystals

Written by：Barry Mann/Cynthia Weil

He gets up each morning and he goes downtown

Where everyone's his boss and he's lost in an angry land

He's a little mad

But then he comes uptown each evenin' to my tenement

Uptown where folks don't have to pay much rent

And when he's there with me he can see that he's everything

Then he's tall he don't crawl he's a king

Downtown he's just one of a million guys

He don't get no breaks and he takes all they got to give

'Cause he's got to live

But then he comes uptown where he can hold his head up high

Uptown he knows that I'll be standing by

And when I take his hand there's no man who could put him down

The world is sweet it's at his feet when he's uptown

Yeah yeah oh

Let me tell ya now

Uptown where he can hold his head up high

Uptown he knows that I'll be standing by

And when I take his hand there's no man who could put him down

The world is sweet it's at his feet when he's uptown

Yeah uptown

Oh uptown

Whoa
