She was five and I was six
We rode on horses made of sticks
I wore black and she wore white
But I would always win the fight
Bang bang, I shot her down
Bang bang, she hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, I shot my baby down
Seasons came and changed the time
When I grew up, I called her mine
She would always laugh and say
"Remember when we used to play?"
Bang bang, you shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, you used to shoot me down
Music played and people sang
Just for me the church bells rang, hey, hey-hey
Now she's gone, I don't know why
But till this day, sometimes I cry
She didn't even say goodbye
She didn't take the time to lie
Bang bang, I shot her down
Bang bang, she hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, I shot my baby down
Bang bang,
Bang bang, I shot my baby down
Bang bang…
Shot her to the ground
