Lyrics[]

"Don't Shoot Shotgun"
Def Leppard

Run, run for cover
Don't shoot, shoot
She's so dangerous (shotgun, gun)
(Don't shoot shotgun)

Maybe I'm wrong
Maybe I'm right
Fallin' head over heals
At the speed of light
Hey little miss heaven-on-earth
Won't you walk this way
But I see a red alert
Oh, my senses say keep away

So don't shoot
Don't shoot shotgun
Dream on nightmare
Touch and go
Dove turned destroyer
She cut you up
She's a slave of love

Run for cover, she's so dangerous
Undercover, she's so shameless
(Don't shoot shotgun)
You got me bitin' my lip
(Don't shoot shotgun)
You're shootin' straight from the hip
So don't shoot shotgun
Shoot me baby, ow

Hit and miss
Flesh and blood
She's sweet and indiscreet
She can't get enough
A little midnight madness
Oh baby, you can't hide
So wild and unpredictable, step aside
'Cause you're, you're shooting wide

Run for cover, she's so dangerous
Undercover, she's so shameless
(Don't shoot shotgun)
You got me bitin' my lip
(Don't shoot shotgun)
You're shootin' straight from the hip
Oh, shake it, shake it
Ah, take this, little hit and miss
Oh yeah

Oh (Don't shoot shotgun)
You got me bitin' my lip, oh
(Don't shoot shotgun)
You're shootin' straight from the hip
Don't shoot it (don't shoot shotgun)
Shake it, shake it, take this little hit and miss, hey
(Don't shoot shotgun) don't shoot it, don't shoot it
Oh, shotgun
Shoot me baby, ow
Let it blow
