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, 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..
