Bang Bang
Cecil Mack, James P Johnson, Sonny Bono, William Adams
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
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
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
And 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
