(Recorded June 4, 1973, Hollywood) 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 (instrumental) 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 (Bridge) Music played and people sang Just for me the church bells rang (instrumental) 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
