Bang Bang

Isobel Campbell

I was five and he was six 
We rode 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 
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
Just for me the church bells rang

Now he's gone I don't know why 
'Till this day some times I 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
