At the bottom of the well my wish is waiting its turn
Like a pack of cigarettes I'm just waiting to burn
Been uptown too long
I wanna go downtown tonight (that's alright)

She don't even know it but my name’s on her lips
She got me kind of crazy just a swinging her hips
I've been uptown too long
I wanna go downtown tonight

(Oh) I wanna go downtown tonight
(Oh) I wanna go downtown tonight

My girl she loves the city when we do it just right
She likes her kissy kissy, she won't put up a fight
Says I've been uptown too long
I wanna go downtown tonight (that's alright)

(Oh) I wanna go downtown tonight
(Oh) I wanna go downtown tonight

I got everything I wanted, what more could you need
Let's head back to the penthouse with them soft silky sheets
We'll crawl in the bed, switch off the lights
I've been downtown too long baby
I'm gonna go back uptown tonight (yeah)

(Oh) I've been downtown tonight
(Oh) I've been downtown tonight
(Oh) With a little bit of kiss and a little bit of bite babe (yeah)
(Oh) I've been downtown tonight
