Lyrics:
Shot down in flames

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

CHORUS:
Shot down in flames, Shot down in flames
Ain't it a shame , To be shot down in flames

Singles bar, got my eye on a honey hanging out everywhere
She minds my stay, she minds on her money I really don't care, no
Said, "Hey baby, you're driving me crazy" Laying out on the line
When a guy with a chip on his shoulder said "Toss off buddy she's mine"

CHORUS

Hey you Angus, shoot me, shoot...

CHORUS

I don't want to be in pain
Don't want to be shot down in flames
