Lyrics
I know you love me for my money
You know that I don't really care
We go together just like charities and millionaires
I know you want me when it's sunny
You always leave me in the rain
I say that you're the thief of hearts, you swear that I am Jesse James
But I'd never hurt you pretty baby
I'd never want to cause you pain
But sometimes your grip can leave a mark
And it's spelling out your name
You stare so deep into my eyes it leaves a tattoo on my brain
And I want to know if just my money alone could buy your love
Could it buy your love?
And I want to see just how much bribery would be enough
Could it be enough?
For you to spend your life as my trophy wife
I know you call me old and crazy
I know you take me for a fool
And I know the devil in your heart could make you sell the golden rule
But you couldn't hurt me pretty baby
You couldn't ever cause me pain
No matter what you do to me, you know I'll always feel the same
Just when I think I've lost the fire you're stoking up my flame
Don't act like it never crossed you mind
Don't act offended or pretend to be surprised
'Cause everything could turn out to be just fine
And we could do some business
If that's the way it's got to be, well, alright
Don't break my heart now pretty baby
This is a game that you could win
By now your grip has left a mark and it spells out your name
You stare so deep into my eyes it leaves a tattoo on my brain
