I had a problem, I couldn't solve it
He had this flashy diamond smile, but had no soul
I gave him love and I gave him all I had
But when I needed his love back his heart was cold

Well, he told me his love would never end
And he sold me and I bought it once again

Shot down, shot down by lady killer
I should have seen it coming from the start
Shot down, shot down by a lady killer
He took his aim and shot straight through my heart

And then it hit me, saw him for what he was
I had to cut him lose, think fast and that was that
And then I saw him, he asked me how I been
Started beggin', pleading, crying the whole routine

Fooled me, two times
The shame is all on me
It's a nice try but I'm not gonna make it three

Shot down, shot down by the lady killer
I should of seen it coming from the start
Shot down, shot down by the lady killer
He took his aim and shot straight through my heart

You had me thinking it was a fairytale
An old time movie just doesn't end as well
Struck by that arrow blinded by your smile
(By your smile, by your smile, by your smile)

Shot down, shot down by the lady killer
I should of seen it coming from the start
Shot down, shot down by the lady killer
He took his aim and shot straight through my heart

Shot down, shot down by the lady killer
I should of seen it coming from the start
Shot down, shot down by the lady killer
He took his aim and shot straight through my heart

Shot down, shot down by the lady killer
I should of seen it coming from the start
Shot down, shot down by the lady killer
He took his aim and shot straight through my heart

Shot down, shot down by the lady killer
I should of seen it coming from the start
Shot down, shot down by the lady killer
He took his aim and shot straight through my heart

Shot down, shot down by the lady killer
