I was 5 and he was 6
We rode on horses made off 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 you 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 churchbells rang, oooh

Now he's gone and and I don't know why
Untill 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
My baby shot me down

Oooh
My baby shot me down

Oooh
My baby shot me down

Shot me down

Shot me down, down, down, down, down
