Crystals - Uptown Lyrics
(Barry Mann/Cynthia Weil)He gets up each morning and he goes downtownWhere everyone's his boss and he's lost in an angry landHe's a little madBut then, he comes uptown each ev'nin' to my tenementUptown where folks don't have to pay much rentAnd when he's there with me, he can see that he's everythingThen he's tall, he don't crawl, he's a kingDowntown, he's just one of a million guysHe don't get no breaks and he takes all they got to give'Cause he's got to liveBut then, he comes uptown where he can hold his head up highUptown, he knows that I'll be standing byAnd when I take his hand, there's no man who could put him downThe world is sweet, it's at his feet when he's uptownWhoa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oaYeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeahYeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeahLet me tell ya nowUptown where he can hold his head up highUptown, he knows that I'll be standing byAnd when I take his hand, there's no man who could put him downThe world is sweet, it's at his feet when he's uptownWhoa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oa-oaYeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeahLet me tell ya nowUptown(fade out)
