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!
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,
I shot her down ...
