I was five and you were six
We rode on horses made of sticks
You wore black and I wore white
But they would always win the fight
Bang bang, they shot me down
Bang bang, I hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, the day they shot me down
Seasons came and changed the time
When we grew up, I called you mine
We would always laugh and say
"Remember when we used to play?"
Bang bang, they shot us down
Bang bang, we hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, they used to shoot us down
Music played and people sang
Just for us the bells they rang
Now we're gone, I don't know why
And 'til this day, sometimes I cry
We didn't even say goodbye
We didn't take the time to lie
Bang bang, they shot us down
Bang bang, we hit the ground
Bang bang, that awful sound
Bang bang, they used to shoot us down
