She saw me walking down the streets of your fine city
It kinda turned me on when she looked at me and said, "Come here"
Now I don't usually talk 2 strangers, but she looked so pretty
What can I lose if I, I just give a little ear?
"What's up little girl? I ain't got time 2 play"
Baby didn't say 2 much - she said, "Are U gay?"
Kinda took me by surprise, I didn't know what 2 do
I just looked her in her eyes and I said, "No, are U?"
(Said 2 myself, said)
She's just a crazy, crazy, crazy little mixed up dame
She's just a victim of society and all its games
Now where I come from
We don't let society tell us how it's supposed 2 be
Our clothes, our hair, we don't care
It's all about being there
Everybody's going Uptown - that's where I wanna be
Uptown - set your mind free
Uptown - got my body hot
Get down - I don't wanna stop, no!
Soon as we got there
Good times were rolling
White, Black, Puerto Rican, everybody just a-freakin'
Good times were rolling
She started dancing in the streets, oh!
The girl, she's just gone mad
U know, she even made love 2 me, ooh!
The best that I ever had, oh yeah
I don't usually talk 2 strangers
This time it's alright
See, she got me hot, I couldn't stop
Good times were rolling all night, all night, yeah
Now where I come from, we don't give a damn
We do whatever we please
It ain't about no downtown, nowhere bound, narrow-minded drag
It's all about being free
Everybody's going Uptown - that's where I wanna be
Uptown - U can set your mind free, yeah
Uptown - keep your body hot
Get down - I don't wanna stop, no!
Uptown (Oh, oh yeah)
Uptown (Everybody's goin', everybody's goin', everybody gotta gotta)
Uptown (Gotta go, gotta go go go, gotta go 2)
Uptown (Oh)
Uptown (Yeah, yeah, oh no)
Uptown (Gotta go go go - baby, I gotta go, gotta go)
Uptown (Come on, come on, U, U have 2, U gotta go)
Uptown (Oh no, yeah, now baby)
Uptown, in penhouse number three
Uptown, there lives a doll just made for me
She's the finest thing that you've ever seen, oh ho ha
Uptown, I see her most every day
Uptown, but she never ever looks my way
I'm just a bellhop, you see I can't stop
And tell her what I wanna say
That one of these days, I'm gonna have money
She'll wanna be my ever-lovin' honey
It won't be long, just wait and see
I'll have a big car, fine clothes
And then I'll be
Uptown, in penthouse number three
Uptown, just my baby and me
Yeah, one of these days, I'm gonna have money
She'll wanna be my ever-lovin' honey
It won't be long, just wait and see
I'll have a big car, fine clothes
And then I'll be
Uptown, in penthouse number three
Walkin' through the fog on a cold and cloudy night
Lookin' through the smog that surrounds the mornin' light
The shades of brown. It gets me down, exactly like my life
I don't deserve the hand I'm dealt, a flush in spades of strife
I've grown tired of speeches that are nothing but a bore
So I'm rounding up the broken me and headin' on out the door
Without no lag I'm packin' my bag of discontented frowns
And hopping numer eighty-six, the first train that is freedom bound
Got my bag of many frowns and I'm takin' it on uptown
Big city lights
Funkier nights
Happier days
Goin' my way
It should be right
But I'm still uptight
Hey, I better put down
And get movin' on
I'm through with aggravation
Don't deserve the degradation
I'm putting all the negatives down
To hop the train that's feedom bound for uptown
Got my bag of many frowns and I'm takin' it on uptown
[Turk]

Featuring: Lil' Wayne
Yeah
Hardly home but always reppin'
You hardly on and always second
When I'm awake you always restin'
And when they call you the answer you are hardly question
I, I'm doin' classic shit in all my sessions
Other niggas situations they are all depressin'
That's why I never follow y'all suggestions
I just always did my own thing
Now I run the game, you stupid mothasuckas
I see all this money through my Ohio state buck-eyes
Shit been goin' good but good could turn to better
'Cause you the type to lose her and I'ma 'bout to get her

Damn, where I get it from? These niggas always wondered who
Then they meet my pop and tell 'em, "Drake is just a younger you"
And shawty wanna party so don't let ya girl up out the house
Or there'll be shots on TMZ of me givin' her mouth to mouth
Now she's famous and the paparazzi starts to shoot her
I dropped to black cards, I named 'em Malcolm X and Martin Luther
I don't ever play but I'm in the game, lady
They just loose to love, those are tennis games, lady
Have you countin' money goin' duffel bag crazy
Sippin' on Pink Floyd and puffin' Wayne Brady
Damn, whose line is it anyway?

Bun B, king of the trill also one of the dopest
Rep for the streets or on the mic, I'm dope and yes, I'm focused
The gangsta recognize me for my locc'ness
No joke, it's time to shake these haters off like the skin on a locust
Or maybe like a py-thon, that's the type of shit I'm on
I wrote this on my i-phone so let me drop this i-bomb
I-palm the game like it's a spalding ball and take flight
From the free throw line and slam it down like I'm the great mike
Bun and Wayne and Drake in here, Mayne, it's gon' be a great night
Look at all these posers bite, I swagger like a great white
Try to cross me over, I just fake left then I break right
Stupid animal tricks like David Lettermans late night
This that major moment you been waitin' on too long
The best that ever did it and doin' it on a new song
UGK and Young Money too strong
Bound to be in the green like a crouton, so what the fuck is you on?
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay
You could run and tell ya friends that I'm on

Best believe I understand
It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay
You could run and tell my city I'm on
I'm on, I'm on, I'm on, I'm on, I'm on
You could run and tell my city it's on
I am the leather jacket, black glasses, all American bad boy

'Cause I got that swag boy, the swag you never had boy
Hate and I will leave your chest the color my flag boy
Suu-woo bitch, I do this shit, I'll erase you like I drew you bitch
And I keep that toaster, you can come and be my spoon bitch

You could run and tell my city it's on
Downtown is where it's at, I don't doubt that
But today I can do without I'm getting sick of the
slums
I'm tired of dodging the bums
And all the freaks are freaking me out
CHORUS:
Today we ruin the roach.
Today we conquer the crab.
Today we bring the bedbug down
Watch me baby, hail a taxi cab
You and me are going uptown
Well, lets go fly a kite in Central Park
Go & see a Shakespeare play
Have a lot of fun at the planetarium
And museum all the blues away
Well, Rockefeller Center and the UN too
Baby don't make me wait
I want to elevate up & down with you
In the building of the Empire State
Well, we'll eat dinner at your favorite Schrafft's
Somebody gonna shine my shoes
Then we'l pop into Playland for pinball laughs
And read the Allied Chemical News
Le's go to Radio City Music Hall
To catch the Rockettes of renown
Then we get to The Garden for some basketball
Or a fight for the heavyweight crown
That's right, a change of pace is good for a change
It's a wonder all the goodness it gives
Life is oh so sweet above Fourteenth Street
Let's go see how the other half lives
Uptown
We got up late, because we couldn't sleep
We go uptown, on the underground
Yeah, we fall from the sky just to learn how to cry
We dance and we sing just to wash it all clean
And the games that we play are the things that we say
And the reason that we are is cause we do it all day
Uptown
We stole a car, just to see how far
We smoked a fag, because life's a drag
Yeah, we fall from the sky just to learn how to cry
We dance and we dream just to wash it all clean
And the games that we play are the things that we say
And the reason that we do is cause we do it all day
Uptown
We say a prayer, because we're well aware
That it's up and down, it's round and round
Yeah, we can fall from the sky just to learn how to cry
We dance and we dream just to wash it all clean
And the games that we play are the things that we say
And the reason that we do is we do it all day

[Intro:]
Uh-uh, uhh, uhh, uhh, yeah
Now lemme hear you say aiyyo (yo) uhh, aight?
[Chorus:]
Cause I kept, kept kept them movin Uptown
I kept, kept kept them movin Uptown
I kept, kept kept them movin Uptown
Across the five-nine cause you know we Queens bound
[Consequence:]
I went to check, check check this chick from Uptown
Who had a couple cousins that stayed by the Polo
Grounds
And even though I'm dolo you know I'm gon' hold it down
So of course I got to click you whenever I roll around
I hung for five minutes, she'll be on the way down
That's when her grandma came to the window and say loud
Don't you come up in here too late, like bitch you
ain't grown
And bring some milk for the baby, on the way home
Rasheeda sucked her teeth then she got in the Coupe
And rolled her eyes at the bitches who were stuck on
the stoop
And that would serve as proof of what I knew as a fact
y'all
That her head so big they should make her a brat don
Since Harlem's her backyard, she know where the smoke
But with detectives on me, sorta like Kojak
No pitstops for ziplocks cause I'm sure that
My data turns destiny the minute we get locked
But if they got the haze accordin to what this broad
That'll make 'em bring the color purple to broadway
And since I waited all day for this bitch to bust down
Ride with the Cons said we take a trip Uptown
[Chorus]
[Consequence:]
Now when the deal done go sour, minutes turned into
hours
In a minute I'm a have to renegotiate for hours
Cause we waited in the car while I went into the Towers
To get a half a ounce that be done off in a hour
But once I showed my chain niggaz started talkin louder
Cause the charm alone'll put a broke nigga back in
power
Well claim you drive for 50 just to get the sack faster
I got back in the ride and the first thing I asked her
Is f'real lil' mama what the hell is you on~? !
I'm startin to feel like 'Pac when he had a session
with Shawn
That's when she tried to worm her way out like fishbait
By sayin whenever she can, the Catholic always went
straight
That's when I pulled off and I went straight before her
state of abuse
Her hands over my mouth, like I'll make it up to you
So why you thinkin we headed to the W for?
Cause she fillin out the jeams like a W-4
[Chorus x2]
[Consequence:]
Let me hear you say ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy-yo, aight?
{*2X*}
Now when we get to Times Square the niggaz who valet
Are lookin cause the shorty short enough to do ballet
So we take a elevator one flight to the skywalk
And guess who's orderin drinks and havin a sidewalk
Her older baby father and that nigga's Dominican
And they kinda posessive so he think he gon' hit again
But ain't no talkin to him cause he's trapped in his
logic
So he'd rather take, back his like she was a deposit
That's when I had to put him in his place like a rhyme
And that means son I'm beefin until the summer's up
But this bitch is dumb enough, to hit the Patron
So I'm a have a surprise for him by the time he get
home
Cause I keep, keep keep the chrome in the whip
For bitch-ass niggaz who don't know when to quit
That's when she came to his aid by throwin a fit
And stopped me from doin somethin that the judge won't
acquit
And I seen that as a sign of disloyalty
She's only in my ride for the royalties
So I can see through my eyes what this is gon' lead
If I don't get back to my ride one of us is gon' bleed
He gets up each morning and he goes downtown
Where everyone's his boss and he's lost in an angry land
He's a little mad
But then, he comes uptown each evenin' to my tenement
Uptown where folks don't have to pay much rent
And when he's there with me, he can see that he's everything
Then he's tall, he don't crawl, he's a king
Downtown, he's just one of a million guys
He don't get no breaks and he takes all they got to give
'Cause he's got to live
But then, he comes uptown where he can hold his head up high
Uptown, he knows that I'll be standing by
And when I take his hand, there's no man who could put him down
The world is sweet, it's at his feet when he's uptown
Whoa
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Let me tell ya now
Uptown where he can hold his head up high
Uptown, he knows that I'll be standing by
And when I take his hand, there's no man who could put him down
The world is sweet, it's at his feet when he's uptown
Whoa
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Let me tell ya now
Uptown
The Crystals
Written by Cynthia Weil and Barry Mann
Peaked at # 13 in 1962
Produced by Phil Spector. One of Spector's first major hits to use castanets as a
percussion effect. According to legend, this song was originally given to Tony Orlando, who
turned it down only to watch it become a Top 15 hit by The Crystals.
He gets up each morning and he goes downtown
Where everyone's his boss and he's lost in an angry land
He's a little man
But then he comes uptown each ev'nin' to my tenement
Uptown where folks don't have to pay much rent
And when he's there with me he can see that he's everything
Then he's tall, he don't crawl, he's a king
Downtown he's just one of a million guys
He don't get no breaks and he takes all they got to give
'cause he's got to live
But then he comes uptown where he can hold his head up high
Uptown he knows that I am standing by
And when I take his hand there's no man who could put him down
The world is sweet, it's at his feet when he's uptown
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
Yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah, yeah-yeah-yeah
Whoa-oh, whoa-oh, oh-yeah
Let me tell ya now
Uptown where he can hold his head up high
Uptown he knows that I am standing by
And when I take his hand there's no man who could put him down
The world is sweet, it's at his feet, when he's uptown
Whoa-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Gonna let my hair down in Harlem
125th street, now here I come, y'all
They're ready for me 'cus I'm coming for fun
I'm gonna eat me some-a-chicken, and some black-eyed peas
Somebody barbequed ribs and some collard greens
I'm gonna party for days in Harlem
Leave the downtown ways for Harlem
Cus I'm going uptown to Harlem
Gonna let my hair down in Harlem
If a taxi won't take me, I'll catch a train
I'll go underground, I'll get there just the same
I'm going make it to the Cave and the Shadow Park?
I'm to uptown faces and down to swat?
I'm gonna make it to the play, I'll stand red-goosed too?
I'll break jack the truce and wear a suit?
I'm going to have me a pole? in Harlem
And that ain't all in Harlem
I'm gonna eat some chitlin's and some black-eyed peas
Somebody barbequed ribs and some collard greens

Can ya picture a lil nigga like me straight thug'n
Hotter than fire, hotter than somethin that's in tha oven
Tha G-Code I live by everyday
Bitch nigga outta line, bitch nigga get erased
Like chalkboards
Look here my nigga I mean what I speak
Nigga want beef I rip both sides of tha street
I got niggas like Big Woe who would ride wit me (ride wit me)
Tre, Duck and Waldo would ride wit me (ride wit me)
I'm bout beefin, creepin whatever
In any kind of weather act a fool wit the diseal
Brotha and Bear look my niggas be thugged out
Quick to run up in yo house and clear everybody out

You don't better find out
Cause I leave yo folks in all black cryin and whined out

Not one, a couple of em makin sure that he drop

When it come down to that guerilla shit nigga I'm bout it
Spinnin corners, Splittin fades wodie it gets me rowdy
I don't just rap about it my nigga I live it
You could get it twisted if you want you gone get it
Let me burn yea
If you haven't been taught nigga you gone learn yea
Hard head make a soft ass
Didn't yo momma tell u that young nigga
You gotta gun so what nigga my gun bigger
If I'm up wit no stuntin I pull tha trigga
Aim for yo chest or head you die quicker
Nigga this young nigga here don't play
Thug'n everyday and I roll wit a K
Don't hesitate I'll blow you away
Have yo family plannin yo funeral in tha way
If you don't want my trouble you betta chill
Learnt this along time I kill or be killed
Ya trying to rock it uptown
But i don't wanna come down
I'm Gonna try to pick it up now
Oh well
Stay a little longer
Stare into the light
Let the sound hold you
Til the end of the night
And if you pour another drink for me
I'll be leaving you behind
One thing you gotta know now
I'm the wandering kind
Feel it getting stronger
Building inside
Wanting it to crash through
Like a wavering tide
And the more you try to blink you'll be
Lost in your mind
Cuz if you're tryna rock uptown
Let's go out tonight
I don't wanna stay in
Let's get out of this hole in the wall
Let's start again
Let's go dancin'
Up on Madison Avenue
Let's go burn it inside out
Let's start again
Let's go Uptown
I'm going Uptown
Let's go Uptown
Let's go Uptown
Let's do it now...
I'm sick of crying
Into my own soup
I wanna eat you up and spit you out
And start again
Let's go dancin'
Up on Madison Avenue
Let's get out of this hole in the wall
Let's start again
Let's go Uptown
We're going Uptown
I'm going Uptown
Let's go Uptown

Let's go Uptown
Where the Arabs dance
And the cappuccino flows
Into gold skin
Let's go dancin'
Up on Madison Avenue
Let's go burn it inside out
Let's start again
Let's go Uptown
Let's go Uptown
We're going Uptown
We're going Uptown
Where the Arabs dance
And the money goes
Where the cappuccino flows
Into gold skin
We're going Uptown
We're going Uptown

Where the Arabs dance
New York City
That's where I like to be
So let's go Uptown...
Just listen to the music of the traffic in the city.
Let's go out tonight
I don't want to stay in
Let's get out of this hole in the wall
