[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
Bang bang. He shot me down
Bang bang. I hit the ground
Bang bang. That awful sound
Bang bang. My baby shot me down

[Verse 2]
Seasons came, and changed the time
When I grew up I called him mine
He would always laugh and say
"Remember when we used to play

[Chorus]
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"

[Verse 3]
Music played, and people sang
Just for me the church bells rang
Now he's gone, I don't know why
And till this day sometimes I 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! [x10]

[Chorus x2]
Bang bang. He shot me down
Bang bang. I hit the ground
Bang bang. That awful sound
Bang bang. My baby shot me down

[Bridge]

[Chorus]
Bang bang. He shot me down
Bang bang. I hit the ground
Bang bang. That awful sound
Bang bang. My baby shot me down
