Uptown

Uptown:Little Eva. Album - Llllloco-Motion - on DIMENSION Records in 1962. INTRO: He gets up each morning and he goes downtown where everyone’s his boss and he’s lost in an angry land.. he’s a little man.. #1. But then he comes uptown each evening to my tenement uptown where folks don’t have to pay much rent. And when he’s there with me he can see that he’s everything then he’s tall he don’t crawl he’s a king. #2. Downtown he’s just one of a million guys he don’t get no breaks and he takes all they got to give.. cause he’s got to live. CHORUS: But then he comes uptown where he can hold his head up high uptown he knows that I’ll be standing by. And when I take his hand there’s no man who could put him down. The world is sweet it’s at his feet when he’s uptown. (INTERLUDE:) CHORUS: Let me tell ya now uptown where he can hold his head up high uptown he knows that I’ll be standing by. And when I take his hand there’s no man who could put him down. The world is sweet it’s at his feet when he’s uptooooown. A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
