Lyrics

Uptown

From 9 AM to 5 Pm downtown is the place to be
Everyone so business like, take themselves so seriously
Come quitting time, no one sticks around
'Cause if you're looking for real fun, you've got to head uptown

Downtown's got dentists and doctors and bankers and brokers and lawyers on everyblock
But if you want to wet your whistle, all you'll find is a coffee shop
After a hard day's work, you're gonna want to get unwound
If you're looking for real fun, you've got to head uptown

I'll take you to Smokey Joe's Cafe, or the Dew Drop Inn
The Greasy Speakeasy, or Lennie's Lions Den
You're gonna love the place they call “I like It Like That”
Uptown is the place to be, it's where its at

If you're looking for a card game, I'll show you where to knock
If you want some live loud music, I'll take you where they really rock
But if you want some friendly company, I know where that can be found
'Cause if you're looking for real fun, you've got to head uptown
