Artist/Band: Nancy Sinatra
Lyrics for Song: Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)
Lyrics for Album: How Does That Grab You? [1966]



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 dont know why

Until this day, sometimes 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


Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down)
