i was five and he was si

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 i used to shoot you down

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 bang that awful sound

bang bang my baby shot me down
