I was five and you were six We rode on horses made of sticks I wore black, you wore white You would always win the fight Bang bang, you 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 I grew up, I called you mine You 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, my baby shot me 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 Now you're gone I don't know why Sometimes I cry You didn't say goodbye You didn't take the time to lie Bang bang, you shot me down Bang bang, I hit the ground Bang bang, that awful sound Bang bang, my baby shot me down
