Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I was 5 and he was 6
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
After echoes from a gun
We both vowed that we'd be one
[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 4]
He shot me down
He shot me
Down
[Verse 5]
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
[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
[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
Shot me down
