I was five and he was six
We road 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
(My baby shot me down, my baby shot me down)
(My baby shot me down, 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 when we use to play (bang bang)
I shot you down (bang bang)
You hit the ground (bang bang)
That awful sound (bang bang)
I use to shoot you down"
(My baby shot me down, my baby shot me down)
(My baby shot me down, my baby shot me down)
Music plays, our people say
Just for me the church bells rang
Now he's gone, I don't know why (don't know why)
Till this day I sometimes cry (sometimes 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
(My baby shot me down, my baby shot me down)
(My baby shot me down, my baby shot me down)
(My baby shot me down, my baby shot me down)
(My baby shot me down, my baby shot me down)
(Bang bang) I shot you down, bang bang
You hit the ground, bang bang
That awful sound, bang bang
I use to shoot you down
(My baby shot me down, my baby shot me down)
(My baby shot me down, my baby shot me down)
(My baby shot me down, my baby shot me down)
(My baby shot me down, my baby shot me down)
