​​heartbreak in the hamptons Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Kiss me, but remember I'm a gangster
Hold me, but you're never gonna tame her
Don't need savin'
I can pay cash for my sins
Want me, but be careful not to need me
Hearts will break as soon as they get greedy
Don't forget that
Baby, I'd kill to be king

[Pre-Chorus]
So if you ask me if it's money or love

[Chorus]
I'll be cryin' in a mansion
Heartbreak in the Hamptons
Yeah, I'll trade my honey
I'll take the money and run
Oh, isn't it romantic?
The diamonds and the damage
Yeah, I'll trade my honey
I'll take the monеy and run

[Verse 2]
Old money, new money
I'll takе it all
Dance for me, dance for me
I'll watch it fall
I'm a billionaire baby
So I won't care if you leave me
[Chorus]
I'll be cryin' in a mansion
Heartbreak in the Hamptons
Yeah, I'll trade my honey
I'll take the money and run
Oh, isn't it romantic?
The diamonds and the damage
Yeah, I'll trade my honey
I'll take the money and run

[Outro]
Money can't buy you happiness
Baby, I'd rather be sad and rich
Pearls and diamond necklaces
Tears rainin' down like the money is
Money can't buy you happiness
Baby, I'd rather be sad and rich
Pearls and diamond necklaces
Tears rainin' down like the money is
