She was five and I was six
We rode on horses made of sticks
I wore black and she wore white
I would always win the fight

Bang bang, she shot me down
Bang bang, right to the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down

The seasons came and changed the time
And we grew up, I called her mine
She would often laugh and say
"Remember when we used to play?"

"Bang bang, she shot me down"
"Bang bang, right to the ground"
"Bang bang, that awful sound"
"Bang bang, I used to shoot you down"

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

Now she's gone, I don't know why
And till this day, sometimes I cry
She didn't even say "goodbye"
She didn't take the time to lie

Bang bang, she shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, my baby shot me down
