Uptown

He gets up each morning and he goes downtown
Where everyones his boss and hes lost in an angry land
Hes a little man
But then he comes uptown each evnin to my tenement
Uptown where folks dont have to pay much rent
And when hes there with me he can see that hes everything
Then hes tall, he dont crawl, hes a king
Downtown hes just one of a million guys
He dont get no breaks and he takes all they got to give
cause hes 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 theres no man who could put him down
The world is sweet, its at his feet when hes 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
