Uptown babies |
| See the little lad, selling kisko? |
| Shouting, «Kisko pops, kisko pops |
| Kisko pops, kisko pops» |
| See the little lad, selling Star? |
| Shouting, «Star news, read the news |
| Read the news, read 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 |
| Lots 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 |
| 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 survival 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 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 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 |
