baby shot me down

got a reason to live

got a reason to fight

got a hole from the give

not ready to see the light

i know - he knows - i know

he's had some kind of master plan

it's not okay what he did

not ok what he gave

when baby shot me down

he's got his new favorite girl

he shepherds her all around

she's the best thing in his world

but not okay in my town

he knows - i know - he knows

i got some cruel intentions for her

guess when the cat's away

every rat's gonna play

like when baby shot me down

ring

ring

ring

ring

goes the barrel

swing

swing

swing

swing

goes the arrow

pop

pop

pop

pop

went the pistol

and that's the way

baby shot me down

my baby

my baby

my baby shot me down

baby

baby

baby

baby

baby

baby

i came up from him behind

he turned around and was shocked

he swore he thought by this time

i'd be stuck under some rock

i know - he knows - i know

i got some master plan just for him

i figure he's got to pay

for his little soiree

like when baby shot me down

ring

ring

ring

ring

goes the buzzer

dang

dang

dang

dang

there goes another

pop

pop

pop

pop

goes the pistol

and that's the way

i shot my baby down

that's the way

i shot my baby down

that's the way

i shot my baby down

my baby

my baby
