The Impressions - Uptown Lyrics

Hit it hard in uptown place
And I can't place a name to a face
Like a flower I play it safe
Behind the wall that I have made

Girl in red, she looks at me
I feel there's nothing much to see
I get a few drinks in me
I reach who i, always strive to be

Gonna turn my voice on .. high
Run the needle down to E
Ooooo
Looking for the youth in me ?

Cuff my sleeves and part my hair
And fill my lungs with toxic air
Disappear for days on end
Having so much time to spend

Intrepids and in silver wheels
In tunnels that are underneath the floor
Drive across the city line
With some someone who I thought that I'd call mine

Gonna turn my voice on .. high
Run the needle down to E
Ooooo
Looking for the youth in me
