Uptown And Down

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

You know I've been to New York

Uptown and down

And if you've been there

Then you've been around

So I couldn't care less

If you loved me or not,

Oh yes, but I almost forgot

How are the people back home?

I hear you got a place of your own,

Don't say you think that I've grown

I've grown used to the people

Tellin' me I'm pretty

And used to the nights

With the boys in the city,

And they couldn't care less

If I love them or not,

I've been looking real hard,

But I don't know for what

How are the people back home?

Tell them I got a show of my own

But sometimes I wished I never left home.

I've been to New York

Uptown and down

And if you been there

Then you've been around

So I couldn't care less

If you loved me or not

Oh yes, I guess

I care a whole lot

I've been to New York

Uptown and down

And if you've been there,

Then you've been around

And I couldn't care less

If you loved me or not,

Oh yes, I guess

I care a whole lot
