Shot Down In Flames Lyrics
Out on the town, looking for a woman
Gonna give me good love
Anybody want to hang out with me?
And maybe burn me up?
She was standing alone over by the jukebox
Like she's something to sell
I said, "Baby what's the going price?"
She told me to go to hell
Shot down in flames
Shot down in flames
Ain't it a shame
To be shot down in flames
Hanging out everywhere
She might be straight
She might want my money
I really don't care, no
Said, "Baby, you're driving me crazy"
Layed it out on the line."
When a guy with a chip on his shoulder said
"Toss off buddy she's mine"
Oh!
Shot down in flames
Shot down in flames
Ain't it a shame
To be shot down in flames
That's nice, wow! Uh! Oh! Oh! Wooooh!
Shot down in flames
Shot down in flames
Ain't it a shame
To be shot down in flames
Shot
Shot down in flames
Shot down in flames
Ain't it a shame
To be shot down in flames
Don't want to be shot down in flames
Ohhh
Simply one of the greatest rock n' roll songs ever put on record.
The first verse is about going out to a club and seeing a girl all dressed up like a cheap whore and when you go over to ask her price, you find out she's not a prostitute and then you feel like a jackass. The second verse is about going up to some hot chick in a bar and having her boyfriend come over just as you make your move. It's happened so many times to so many people that everyone can relate to this song.
Anybody can relate to this song... I love how the guitars drop off on the first verse... She told me to got hell... (Silence) SHOT DOWN IN FLAMES!
I love this song, my favorite off of Highway... and in top 5 of my favorite Bon songs (Dirty Deeds, TNT, Squealer, SDIF, The Jack in no particular order)
This song means you've been rejected so bad, you feel like you've been shot down. You think you're gonna get a girl, but it turns out she doesn't like you back or another guy got her. But hey, don't worry, It ain't a shame To be shot down in flames
Besides the title track, this is the most frequently played live song from H2H.

a fat bottomed rocker chick had her hair all cute like.
