I was five and he was six, we rode 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, awful sound
Bang Bang my baby shot me down

Seasons came and changed the time, I grew up and 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, awful sound
Bang bang my baby shot me down

Music played and people sang
Just for me the church bells rang

Now he’s gone I don’t know why, even now sometimes I cry
He didn’t even say goodbye, 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
