Letra de Downtown came uptown

David wilcox
downtown came uptown
I used to wear jeans
i'm in italian slacks
i had long shaggy hair
it's cut short and slicked back
i drank three dollar wine
now it's cocktails at two
because downtown came uptown for you
I used to think that coke came in a bottle or can
silk underwear
wasn't right on a man
hush puppies and sneakers
now it's alligator shoes
because downtown came uptown for you
Well you told me that you love me
and said i could be your man
ah but then you said
i had no more style than a rat in a garbage can
So you took me uptown
you made your driver wait
taught me how to eat snails
and caviar on a plate
no more sittin' in the alley
with the boys drinkin' blues
because downtown came uptown for you
Bridge
Well you told me that you love me
and said i could be your man
ah but then you said i had no more style
than a rat in a garbage can
my manicures at five
french lesson at six
oh don't tell me you can't
teach a dog new tricks
i'm going out on the town
my friends are spreadin' the news
because downtown came uptown for you
i said downtown came uptown for you
darlin' downtown came up town for you
