Uptown girl
She's been living in her uptown world
I bet she's never had a backstreet 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

Well, I'm hot blooded, check it and see
I got a fever of a hundred and three
Come on baby, do you do more than dance?
I'm hot blooded, I'm hot blooded

 

You don't have to read my mind, to know what I have in mind
Honey you oughta know
Now you move so fine, let me lay it on the line
I wanna know what you're doin' after the show

 

Now it's up to you, we can make a secret rendezvous
Just me and you, I'll show you lovin' like you never knew

I'm ridin' in your car
You turn on the radio
You're pullin' me close
I just say no
I say I don't like it
But you know I'm a liar
'Cause when we kiss, ooh
Fire

 

Late at night
You're takin' me home
You say you want to stay 
I say I want to be alone
I say I don't love you
But you know I'm a liar
'Cause when we kiss, ooh
Fire

 

You had a hold on me right from the start
A grip so tight I couldn't tear it apart
My nerves all jumpin', actin' like a fool
Well, your kisses they burn, but my heart stays cool

Love is a burning thing
And it makes a fiery ring
Bound by wild desire
I fell in to a ring of fire
 
I fell into a burning ring of fire
I went down, down, down
And the flames went higher
And it burns, burns, burns
The ring of fire
The ring of fire
 
The taste of love is sweet
When hearts like ours meet
I fell for you like a child
Oh, but the fire went wild

 

I fell into a burning ring of fire
I went down, down, down
And the flames went higher
And it burns, burns, burns
The ring of fire
The ring of fire

Alright
Now dig this, baby

 


You don't care for me
I don't care about that
You got a new fool, ha!
I like it like that
I have only one burning desire
Let me stand next to your fire


Let me stand next to your fire (Hey! Let me stand next to your fire)
Let me stand next to your fire (Whoa, let me stand baby)
Let me stand next to your fire (Let me stand)
Let me stand next to your fire (Yeah baby)


Listen here, baby
And stop acting so crazy
You say your mamma ain't home
It ain't my concern
Just don’t play with me and you won’t get burned
I have only an itching desire
Let me stand next to your fire

Ooh, you're givin' me the fever tonight
I don't want to give in
I'd be playin' with fire
You forget, I've seen you work before
Take 'em straight to the top
Leave 'em cryin' for more
I've seen you burn 'em before
 
Fire and ice
You come on like a flame
Then you turn a cold shoulder
Fire and ice
I want to give you my love
But you'll just take a little piece of my heart
 
You'll just tear it apart

Well I don't know where they come from
But they sure do come
I hope they comin' for me
And I don't know how they do it but they sure do it good
I hope they doin' it for free


They give me cat scratch fever
Cat scratch fever

 

The first time that I got it 
I was just ten years old
I got it from some kitty next door
I went and see the Dr. and he gave me the cure
I think I got it some more

 

They give me cat scratch fever
Cat scratch fever

Down with disease
Three weeks in my bed
Trying to stop these demons that keep dancing in my head
 
Down with disease
Up before the dawn
A thousand barefoot children outside dancing on my lawn
 
And I keep
Waiting for the time when I can finally say
That this has all been wonderful but now I'm on my way
But when I think it's time to leave it all behind
I try to find a way but there's nothing I can say to make it stop

I looked outside my window and what do you think I saw?
The strangest sight I've ever seen you'll never guess just what I mean,
I can't believe it myself 

I saw 2 Buffalos, 2 Buffalos,
Buffalos on my lawn,
Romping all around and stomping on the ground
And all of my grass was gone.

I watched them for a while and what do you think I saw?
The strangest sight I've ever seen you'll never guess just what I mean
I still can't believe it myself!

I saw 4 Buffalos, 4 Buffalos Buffalos on my lawn,
Romping all around and Stomping on the Ground
And all of my grass was gone.

Then I began to worry, for what was I supposed to do?
The strangest sight I've ever seen, I guess you've guessed just what I mean.
Though I can't believe it myself
I saw 8 Buffalos, 8 Buffalos, 
Buffalos on my lawn
Romping all around and stomping on the ground and
All of my grass was gone.

Pretty soon there were 16 Buffalos, 16 Buffalos
Buffalos coming in the door
Romping all around and stomping on the ground
There were Buffalos by the score

Looked again and there's 32 Buffalos, 32 Buffalos
Buffalos sliding down the stairs
Romping all around and stomping on the ground
There were buffalos jumping on the chairs.

Pretty soon there were 64 Buffalos, 64 Buffalos
Buffalos running in my room
Romping all around and stomping on the ground
Somebody better get a broom

1 Hundred and 28 Buffalos
Man that's enough of those Buffalos, jumping in my bed
Romping all around and stomping on the ground
So this is what I said;

You better get out of here Buffalos
Get outta here Buffalos
Buffalos get outta my bed
You've been jumping on things and busting all the springs
And I'm gonna shoot you dead

I looked out of my window and what do you think I saw
The nicest sight I've ever seen
I guess you know just what I mean
I still can't believe it myself
I saw No Buffalos, No Buffalos
Buffalos on my lawn
Not romping all around or stomping on the ground
But all of my grass was gone.

As I was walking down the street one day
A man came up to me and asked me what the time was that was on my watch, yeah
And I said
Does anybody really know what time it is
Does anybody really care (care about time)
If so I can't imagine why (no, no)
We've all got time enough to cry

Time has come today 
Young hearts can go their way 
Can't put it off another day 
I don't care what others say 
They say we don't listen anyway 
Time has come today
(Hey) 

 

Oh
The rules have changed today (Hey) 
I have no place to stay (Hey) 
I'm thinking about the subway (Hey) 
My love has flown away (Hey) 
My tears have come and gone (Hey) 
Oh my Lord, I have to roam (Hey) 
I have no home (Hey) 
I have no home (Hey) 

 

Now the time has come (Time) 
There's no place to run (Time) 
I might get burned up by the sun (Time) 
But I had my fun (Time) 
I've been loved and put aside (Time) 
I've been crushed by the tumbling tide (Time) 
And my soul has been psychedelicized (Time)

Wake up, got another day to get through now 
Got another man to see 
Got to call him on the telephone 
Got to find a piece of paper

 

Sit down, got another letter to write 
Think I'll got to get the letter just right 
There's a ringing on the telephone 
Oh no, got to write a little later 
No such day as tomorrow, only one two three go!

 

Time - got the time tick-tick-tickin' in my head

I'm gonna write a little letter
Gonna mail it to my local DJ
It's a rockin' rhythm record
I want my jockey to play
Roll over Beethoven, I gotta hear it again today
 
You know, my temperature's risin'
And the jukebox blows a fuse
My heart's beatin' rhythm
And my soul keeps on singin' the blues
Roll over Beethoven and tell Tchaikovsky the news

As soon as you are able, woman I am willing
To make the break that we are on the brink of
My cup is on the table, my love is spilling
Waiting here for you to take and drink of


So if you're tired of the same old story, 
Oh, turn some pages
I will be here when you are ready
To roll with the changes, yeah, yeah

In the mornin' you go gunnin' for the man who stole your water
And you fire till he is done in but they catch you at the border
And the mourners are all singin' as they drag you by your feet
But the hangman isn't hangin' and they put you on the street
 
You go back, Jack, do it again, wheels turinin' 'round and 'round
You go back, Jack, do it again
 
When you know she's no high climber then you find your only friend
In a room with your two timer, and you're sure you're near the end
Then you love a little wild one, and she brings you only sorrow
All the time you know she's smilin'; you'll be on your knees tomorrow
 
You go back, Jack, do it again, wheels turinin' 'round and 'round
You go back, Jack, do it again
 
Now you swear and kick and beg us that you're not a gamblin' man;
Then you find you're back in Vegas with a handle in your hand
Your black cards can make you money so you hide them when you're able
In the land of milk and honey you must put them on the table
You go back, Jack, do it again, wheels turinin' 'round and 'round
You go back, Jack, do it again

I was born in a cross-fire hurricane
And I howled at the morning driving rain
But it's all right now, in fact, it's a gas
But it's all right. I'm Jumpin' Jack Flash
It's a gas, gas, gas

Money money money money, money 

 

Some people got to have it
Some people really need it
Listen to me why'all, do things, do things, do bad things with it
You want to do things, do things, do things, good things with it
Talk about cash money, money
Talk about cash money- dollar bills, why'all

 

For the love of money
People will steal from their mother
For the love of money
People will rob their own brother

For the love of money
People can't even walk the street
Because they never know who in the world they're gonna beat
For that lean, mean, mean green
Almighty dollar, money

 

For the love of money
People will lie, Lord, they will cheat
For the love of money
People don't care who they hurt or beat
For the love of money
A woman will sell her precious body
For a small piece of paper it carries a lot of weight
Call it lean, mean, mean green

Almighty dollar
