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
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 him 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, he used to shoot me down
Oh oh oh
Music played and people sang
Just for me the church bells rang
Oh baby, you shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Oh oh my baby shot me down
Bang bang, you shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Oh oh oh why you shot me down
Why'd you shoot?
Why'd you shoot?
Oh my baby shot me down
Why'd you shoot?
Why'd you shoot?
My baby shot me down
Why'd you shoot?
Why'd you shoot?
My baby shot me down
