i was five and he was six
we road 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
remeber when we use to play

(bang, bang) i shot you down
(bang, bang) you hit the ground
(bang, bang) that awful sound
(bang, bang) i use to shoot you down

music plays our people say
just for me the church bells rang

now he's gone, i don't know why
till this day i sometimes 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

(duet part)

(bang, bang) i shot you down
(bang, bang) you hit the ground
(bang, bang) that awful sound
(bang, bang) i use to shoot you down
