Lyrics

>
Uptown, Uptown
Uptown (Uptown), in penthouse number three
(Uptown, Uptown)
Uptown (Doo-wop), there lives a doll just made for me
(Doo-wop, doo-wop)
She's the finest thing that you've ever seen, uh-huh
(Uh-huh, uh-huh)
Uptown, I see her most every day
Uptown, but she never ever looks my way
I'm just a bellhop, you see I can't stop
And tell her what I wanna say
That one of these days, I'm gonna have money
She'll wanna be my ever-lovin' honey
It won't be long, just wait and see
I'll have a big car, fine clothes and then I'll be
Uptown, in penthouse number three
Uptown, just my baby and me
(Doo-doo-wop, doo-doo-doo-wop)
- Piano solo -
Yeah, one of these days, I'm gonna have money
She'll wanna be my ever-lovin' honey
It won't be long, just wait and see
I'll have a big car, fine clothes and then I'll be
Uptown (Uptown), in penthouse number three
Uptown (Uptown), just my baby and me
(Uptown, Uptown, Uptown, Uptown, Uptown)
