Downtown Came Uptown [David Wilcox] 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 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
