BABY SHOT ME DOWN As recorded by Beth Hart (From the 2016 Album FIRE ON THE FLOOR) [Intro] [Verse 1] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] N.C. Ring ring ring ring Goes the barrel N.C. Swing swing swing swing Goes the arrow N.C. Pop pop pop pop Went the pistol And that’s the way Baby shot me down [Bridge] My baby baby Baby shot me down Baby baby baby Baby baby baby         [Verse 2] 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 soirée Like when baby shot me down [Chorus]  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 [Outro] That’s the way I shot my baby down That’s the way I shot my baby down My baby my baby
