Uptown |
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 man |
But then he comes uptown each evening 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 am 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 |
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh |
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah |
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, oh, yeah |
Let me tell ya now |
Uptown where he can hold his head up high |
Uptown he knows that I am 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 |
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh |
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah |
Let me tell ya now, uptown |
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh |
