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 how we used to play?"

Bang bang, he shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, oh, my baby shot me down

Oh, my baby shot me down

Now he's gone, I don't know why
Until this day I 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, oh, my baby...
Oh, my baby shot me down...
