Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down) [Live from Jazz At Lincoln Center]

I was five and he was six

We rode on the 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, I hit the ground

Bang bang, that awful sound

I used to shoot you down

Music played and people sang

Not for me, no church bells rang

Now, he's gone, I don't know why

And to this day, sometimes I cry

He didn't even say goodbye

He didn't take the time to lie

Bang bang, I shot you down

Bang bang, he hit the ground

Bang bang, that awful sound

My baby shot me down
