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 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
