Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Priests and the
The judges
Rabbis
Pay very well
[Verse 2]
We aren't really here
Till we've found a way
A way to die
A way to die
[Verse 3]
Talking emptiness
Into the air
Bump giants
And religion
[Verse 4]
The saloon is
My refuge
Uptown folks
Pay very well indeed
[Verse 5]
Uptown folks
Pay very well indeed
[Verse 6]
Back to the
The garden
Where the rich folks
Love a walk
[Verse 7]
Don't chop wood
For practice
Your place is here
In the world
[Verse 8]
Delirium
Delirium
Maybe it's just
Cold outside
[Verse 9]
Crooked bones
Show the king's feet
Uptown folks
Pay very well indeed
[Verse 10]
Uptown folks
Pay very well indeed
[Verse 11]
Back to the
The garden
Back to the garden
We will go
[Verse 12]
Back to the
The garden
Back to the garden
We will go
[Verse 13]
Back to the
The garden
Back to the garden
We will go
[Verse 14]
Back to the
The garden
Back to the garden
We will go
[Verse 15]
Back to the
The garden
Back to the garden
We will go
[Verse 16]
Back to the
The garden
Back to the garden
We will go
[Verse 17]
Uptown folks
Pay very well
Uptown folks
Pay very well
[Verse 18]
Uptown folks
Pay very well
Uptown folks
Pay very well indeed
[Verse 19]
Uptown folks
Pay very well
Uptown folks
Pay very well
[Verse 20]
Uptown folks
They pay very well
