Bang bang you shot me down   Bang bang I hit the ground   Bang bang that awful sound   Bang bang my baby shot me down    I was five and you were six   We rode on horses made of sticks I wore black you wore white   You would always win the fight    Bang bang you 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 I grew up I called you mine   You would always laugh and say   Remember when we used to play    Bang bang you shot me down   Bang bang I hit the ground   Bang bang that awful sound   Bang bang my baby shot me down    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    Now you're gone I don't know why   Sometimes I cry   You didn't say goodbye   You didn't take the time to lie    Bang bang you shot me down   Bang bang I hit the ground   Bang bang that awful sound   Bang bang my baby shot me down
