Uptown Babies Don't Cry |
See the little lad, selling Kiss — cup? |
Shouting; |
Kiss ca-pop, Kiss ca-pop. |
Kiss ca-pop, Kiss ca-pop's. |
See the little lad, selling star? |
Shouting; |
star news, read the news. |
Read the news, rends the news. |
He is doing it you see. |
To help his mummy pay the fee. |
For little junior to go to school. |
Uptown babies don’t cry. |
They don’t know what hungry is like. |
Uptown babies don’t cry. |
They don’t know what suffering is like. |
They have mummy and daddy. |
Lot’s of toys to play with |
Nanny and granny. |
Lot’s of friends to stay with. |
Uptown babies don’t cry. |
They don’t know what hungry is like. |
Uptown babies don’t cry. |
They don’t know what suffering is like. |
They have mummy and daddy. |
Lot’s of toys to play with |
Nanny and granny. |
Lot’s of feiends to say with. |
Hear that little baby crying? |
Yes she’s crying, she’s crying. |
She’s crying because she’s hungry. |
You can hear her mama saying. |
It ain’t easy, ain’t easy. |
Ain’t easy when you’re poor, you see. |
And speaking of life in the ghetto. |
Where sur-vival is the motto. |
And putting it to you. |
Poverty is a sin. |
Uptown babies don’t cry. |
They don’t know what hungry is like. |
Uptown babies don’t cry. |
They know what suffering is like. |
They have mummy and daddy. |
lot’s of toys to play with |
Nanny and granny. |
lot’s of friends to stay with. |
Uptown babies don’t cry. |
They don’t know what hungry is like. |
Uptown babies don’t cry. |
They don’t know what suffering is like. |
They have mummy and daddy. |
lot’s of toys to play with |
Nanny and granny. |
lot’s of friends to stay with. |
Uptown babies don 't cry. |
Don’t cry, don’t cry. |
(Mummy and daddy) |
They don’t know what suffering is like |
(Mummy and daddy) |
Uptown babies don’t cry. |
Don’t cry, don’t cry |
(Mummy and daddy) |
They don’t know what suffering is like. |
