Prince – Uptown Lyrics  Share

From Prince's album: Dirty Mind

She saw me walking down the streets of your fine city
It kinda turned me on when she looked at me and said, "Come here"
Now I don^,t usually talk 2 strangers, but she looked so pretty
What can I lose if I, I just give a little ear?
"What^,s up little girl? I ain^,t got time 2 play"
Baby didn^,t say 2 much - she said, "Are U gay?"
Kinda took me by surprise, I didn^,t know what 2 do
I just looked her in her eyes and I said, "No, are U?"
(Said 2 myself, said)
She^,s just a crazy, crazy, crazy little mixed up dame
She^,s just a victim of society and all its games

Now where I come from
We don^,t let society tell us how it^,s supposed 2 be
Our clothes, our hair, we don^,t care
It^,s all about being there

Everybody^,s going Uptown - that^,s where I wanna be
Uptown - set your mind free
Uptown - got my body hot
Get down - I don^,t wanna stop, no!

Soon as we got there
Good times were rolling
White, Black, Puerto Rican, everybody just a-freakin^,
Good times were rolling
She started dancing in the streets, oh!
The girl, she^,s just gone mad
[ Uptown lyrics from

U know, she even made love 2 me, ooh!
The best that I ever had, oh yeah
I don^,t usually talk 2 strangers
This time it^,s alright
See, she got me hot, I couldn^,t stop
Good times were rolling all night, all night, yeah

Now where I come from, we don^,t give a damn
We do whatever we please
It ain^,t about no downtown, nowhere bound, narrow-minded drag
It^,s all about being free

Everybody^,s going Uptown - that^,s where I wanna be
Uptown - U can set your mind free, yeah
Uptown - keep your body hot
Get down - I don^,t wanna stop, no!

Uptown (Oh, oh yeah)
Uptown (Everybody^,s goin^,, everybody^,s goin^,, everybody gotta gotta)
Uptown (Gotta go, gotta go go go, gotta go 2)
Uptown (Oh)
Uptown (Yeah, yeah, oh no)
Uptown (Gotta go go go - baby, I gotta go, gotta go)
Uptown (Come on, come on, U, U have 2, U gotta go)
Uptown (Oh no, yeah, now baby)
Yeah!
