Lyrics:
Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)

Writer(s):  Sonny Bono

I was five and she was six, we rode on horses made of sticks
I wore black and she wore white, she would always win the fight
Bang bang, she 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, and we grew up, I called her mine
She 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, jJust for me the church bells rang
Now she's gone, I don't know why, and till this day, sometimes I cry
She didn't even say "goodbye"  She didn't take the time to lie
Bang bang, she shot me down, Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound, Bang bang, my baby shot me down
