Midtown Girl Song

By: Billy Joel  |  March 13, 2014

Midtown girl
She’s on the shuttle to her YU world
I bet she’s never dated a Heights guy
Maybe it’s because she’s too shy

I’m gonna try for a midtown girl
She’s been living in her Torah-Madda world
As long as any sem girl can
And now she’s looking for a YU man
That’s what I am

And when she knows what
She wants from her shuttle ride
And when she wakes up
And makes up her mind

She’ll see I am frum enough
Even though
I’m in love with a Stern girl
You know I’ve seen her in the library
She’s getting tired of that ringless finger
And staring at the Maccabeats singer
She’s still single

Ayayayayay

Midtown girl
You know I can’t afford a cab each time
But maybe someday when we go out
She’ll see it’s shayach throughout
And then the vort

And when she’s ‘studying’
I’m making the moves
And when I call her
She’ll say she approves

She’ll see I am frum enough
Even though I’m in love
With a Stern girl
She’s been living in her midtown world
As long as any single girl can
And now she’s looking for a YU man
That’s what I am

…ayayayaya…

Stern girl
She’s now my uptown girl
Don’t you know I’m in love
With an uptown girl

My uptown girl
Don’t You know I’m in love
With an uptown girl
My uptown girl
Don’t you know I’m in love
With an uptown girl
My uptown girl
she’s an uptown girl
