Down at the Uptown

M.C. Taylor

[Verse 1]
It was a real live world, and I wanna live in it
I  got up and sung in a whole lot of places like this
Christmas  lights, but nobody gave a shit like this
It was a real live world, and I wanna live in it

[Chorus]
So, if I'm a stranger now
And  runnin' on my own time
It's  'cause I made a vow
Down at the Uptown

[Verse 2]
Horses  playing on the radio
Someone's in the bathroom sleeping off a bad one
Queenie's selling roses out the back door
It was a real live world, and I wanna live in it

[Chorus]
So,  if I'm a stranger now
And runnin' on my own time
It's 'cause I made a vow
Down at the Uptown

[Verse 3]
Mama, I'm standing on the ledge-i-o
Run, jump, or fly? I think I caught a bad one
I guess we only get so many chances to shine
It was a real live world and I wanna live in it

[Chorus]
So, if I'm a stranger now
And runnin' on my own time
It's 'cause I made a vow
Down at the Uptown

So, if I'm a stranger now
And runnin' on my own time
It's 'cause I made a vow
Down at the Uptown
