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 when we used to play"
Bang, bang, he shot me 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
After echoes from a gun
We both vowed that we'd be one
Bang, bang, he shot me down
Bang, bang, I hit the ground
Bang, bang, that awful sound
Bang, bang, my baby shot me down
He shot me down
He shot me ...
Now he's gone, I don't know why
Until this day, sometimes I cry
He didn't even say "Goodbye"
He didn't take the time to lie
He shot me down
I hit the ground
That awful sound
My baby shot me down
He shot me down
I hit the ground
That awful sound
My baby shot me down
Shot me down
