LYRICS

[Chorus:]
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'd would always win the fight

[Chorus]

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

[Chorus]

Music played and people sang
Just for me the church bells rang
After echoes form 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

[Chorus]

You shot me right between the eyes
You meant to paralyze
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang
Oh oh baby, I'm laying on the ground
I ain't never going down
Bang, bang oh baby, oh baby
Come on back to me
You'll see how sweet it's gonna be
Bang, Bang
