Lyrics
0:00Uptown (上城) - The Crystals
0:01He gets up each morning and he goes downtown
0:06Where everyone's his boss and he's lost in an angry land
0:13He's a little man
0:17But then he comes uptown each evenin' to my tenement
0:23Uptown where folks don't have to pay much rent
0:27And when he's there with me he can see that he's everything
0:35Then he's tall he don't crawl he's a king
0:44Downtown he's just one of a million guys
0:48He don't get no breaks and he takes all they got to give
0:56'Cause he's got to live
1:00But then he comes uptown where he can hold his head up high
1:05Uptown he knows that I'll be standing by
1:10And when I take his hand there's no man who could put him down
1:18The world is sweet it's at his feet when he's uptown
1:25Whoa-oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh
1:29Yeah-yeah yeah-yeah yeah-yeah-yeah
1:34Whoa-oh whoa-oh oh yeah
1:38Let me tell ya now
1:40Uptown where he can hold his head up high
1:44Uptown he knows that I'll be standing by
1:48And when I take his hand there's no man who could put him down
1:56The world is sweet it's at his feet when he's uptown
2:04Whoa-oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh
2:08Yeah-yeah yeah-yeah yeah-yeah-yeah
2:12Let me tell ya now uptown
2:17Whoa-oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh
