He's a player, don't you know
Watch out (watch out)
Girls I'm telling you
He'll be knocking at your door
If you let him in one time
You gotta go back for more
He drives around at night
Living in his fancy car
Breakin' hearts from left and right
He don't care you are
Cuz he's a player
He'll get next to you
He's a player
This is what he's gonna do
He'll shoot you down
Right down to the ground
He'll shoot you down
Right down to the ground
Ooo-ooo la la la oooh-oooh
Girls I'm warning you
He'll have you eating out the palm of his hand
His lovin' is addictive
You'll never want another man
He'll wine you and he'll dine you
He'll say you're the only one
He'll take your heart, tear it apart
Then he'll be on the run
Cuz he's a player
He'll get next to you
He's a player
This is what he's gonna do
He'll shoot you down
Right down to the ground
He'll shoot you down
Right down to the ground
Cold blooded son of a gun, yes he is (yes he is)
Cold blooded son of a gun, yes he is (oooh oooh)
He'll shoot you down right down to the ground
He's a player, don't you know
Watch out
Don't you know, ladies
He's a player, don't you know
Watch out
Watch out, ladies
Cold blooded son of a gun, that's what he is
He'll shoot you down
Right down to the ground
Cold blooded son of a gun, that's what he is
He'll shoot you down
Right down to the ground
Cuz he's a player
He'll get next to you
He's a player
This is what he's gonna do
He'll shoot you down
Right down to the ground
He'll shoot you down
Right down to the ground
Ooo-ooo la la la oooh-oooh
He's a player, don't you know
Watch out
Ooo-ooo la la la oooh-oooh
He's a player, don't you know
Watch out
Ooo-ooo la la la oooh-oooh
That's what he is
