Lock me up, take my pride away
Shake my hand, pour the chardonnay

To the left of July, I finally caved to the careless
Got a bad idea for two, but rolled the dice
(Rolled the dice)
You got me running, pinching pennies, like I'm a fool
(Just a getaway, long shot getaway)
You got me running, trying to sell me Hollywood
(Just a getaway, long shot getaway)

So can you please help me man
I didn't think that they would tie my hands
There's a high price to pay for fame
Put the shame on you for your hollow ways

Been nice to know ya
But don't come between
Mi amore
It's killin' me
Been nice to know ya
But don't come between
Mi amore
She's the best of me

As I walk alone oh I hope I get justice
I carry one-dollar bills like it's a choice
You got me running, pinching pennies, like I'm a fool
(Just a getaway, long shot getaway)
You got me running, running all over Hollywood
(Just a getaway, long shot getaway)

So can you please help me man
I didn't think that they would tie my hands
There's a high price to pay for fame
Put the shame on you for your hollow ways

Been nice to know ya
But don't come between
Mi amore
It's killin' me
Been nice to know ya
But don't come between
Mi amore
She's the best of me

Can't put up a fight
Til I'm away from you
Can't put up a fight
Til I'm away from you
(Away from you)
(Away from you)

Lock me up, take my pride away
Shake my hand, pour the chardonnay
Lock me up, take my pride away
Shake my hand, pour the chardonnay
Lock me up, take my pride away
Shake my hand, pour the chardonnay

Been nice to know ya
But don't come between
Mi amore
It's killin' me
Been nice to know ya
But don't come between
Mi amore
She's the best of me

Can't put up a fight
Til I'm away from you
Can't put up a fight
Til I'm away from you
