Westlife—Uptown girl
Uptown girl
She's been living in her uptown world
I bet she never had a back street guy
I bet her mama never told her why
I'm gonna try for an uptown girl
She's been living in her white bread world
As long as anyone with hot blood can
And now she's looking for a downtown man
That's what I am
And when she knows what
She wants from her time
And when she wakes up
And makes up her mind
She'll see I'm not so tough
Just because
I'm in love with an uptown girl
You know I've seen her in her uptown world
She's getting tired of her high class toys
And all her presents from her uptown boys
She's got a choice
Uptown girl
You know I can't afford to buy her pearls
But maybe someday when my ship comes in
She'll understand what kind of guy I've been
And then I'll win
And when she's walking
She's looking so fine
And when she's talking
She'll say that she's mine
She'll say I'm not so tough
Just because
I'm in love
With an uptown girl
She's been living in her white bread world
As long as anyone with hot blood can
And now she's looking for a downtown man
That's what I am
Uptown girl
She's my uptown girl
You know I'm in love
With an uptown girl
My uptown girl
You know I'm in love
With an uptown girl
My uptown girl
You know I'm in love
With an uptown girl
My uptown girl
窈窕淑女
她住在那高檔的住宅區
我賭她從沒跟街頭男孩交往過
我賭她媽媽也從沒跟她說過為什麼不可
我想交個窈窕淑女
她住在那高檔的住宅區
只要是熱血青年就有機會
現在她來尋找鄉村男孩
那就是我呀
日子一天天過去
她會明白她想要什麼
等它從夢中醒來
就會做好決定
她會發現我這人不錯
因為我們相愛了
我在她的世界看見過她
看得出她已經玩膩了她的高檔玩具
還有那些富家公子送她的高檔禮物
她現在有其他的選擇了
窈窕淑女
你知道我沒錢給你買珍珠首飾
但搞不好那天我的好運來了
她就會知道我是多麼好的人
那時我就成功了
當她走在路上
她看起來是那麼婀娜
當她和別人聊天時
她會說我們倆是一對
她會發現我這人不錯
因為我們相愛了
她住在那高檔的住宅區
只要是熱血青年就有機會
現在她來尋找鄉村男孩
那就是我呀
窈窕淑女
她是我的窈窕淑女
你知道我們相愛了
我跟窈窕淑女戀愛了
我的窈窕淑女
