I was five and he was six
We rode on horses made of sticks
He wore black and I wore white
He would always win the fight
Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down.
Seasons came and changed the time
When I grew up, I called him mine
He would always laugh and say
Remember how we used to play?
Bang bang, I shot you down
Bang bang, you hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
My baby shot me down
Music played, and people sang
Just for me, the church bells rang.
Now he's gone, I don't know why
And till this day, sometimes I cry
He didn't even say goodbye
He didn't take the time to lie, Bang bang,
He shot me down Bang bang,
I hit the ground Bang bang,
That awful sound yeah Bang bang...
My baby shot me down
