I was five and she 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
And I grew up, I called him mine
He would always laugh and say
“Remember when we used to play?”

“Bang bang, I shot you down”
“Bang bang, you hit the ground”
“Bang bang, that awful sound”
“Bang bang, I used to shoot you 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
Bang bang, my baby shot me down
