Bang Bang Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus 1]
Bang bang
He shot me down
Bang bang
I hit the ground
Bang bang
That awful sound
Bang bang
My baby shot me down
[Verse 2]
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"
[Chorus 2]
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
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
[Chorus 1]
Bang bang
He shot me down
Bang bang
I hit the ground
Bang bang
That awful sound
Bang bang
My baby shot me down
[Verse 2]
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"
[Chorus 2]
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
[Bridge]
Music played and people sang
Just for me the church bells rang
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Now he's gone, I don't know why
And 'til this day, I sometimes cry
He didn't even say goodbye
He didn't take the time to lie
[Chorus 1]
Bang bang
He shot me down
Bang bang
I hit the ground
Bang bang
That awful sound
Bang bang
My baby shot me down
[Outro]
Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
My baby shot me down
Oohh-oh-oh
My baby shot me down
Shot me down
Shot me down, down, down, down, down
Music played and people sang
Just for me the church bells rang
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Now he's gone, I don't know why
And 'til this day, I sometimes cry
He didn't even say goodbye
He didn't take the time to lie
[Chorus 1]
Bang bang
He shot me down
Bang bang
I hit the ground
Bang bang
That awful sound
Bang bang
My baby shot me down
[Outro]
Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
My baby shot me down
Oohh-oh-oh
My baby shot me down
Shot me down
Shot me down, down, down, down, down
About
This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation
Dua Lipa signed on as the face of Italian fashion brand Patrizia Pepe in August. She models their A/W line in a photo shoot and delivers a cover of Cher or Nancy Sinatra’s song (choose your preferred version) in a new commercial.
This song has been done to death over the years, but Dua Lipa breathes new life into it courtesy of dark and brooding electronic-production and a typically smoldering vocal.
