Lyrics The Bandit - Tex Ritter

The Bandit

Ol?©, a cangachero, your band it’s for Brazil
Ol?©, he is bandit, the band it’s for Brazil
I’m the quickest on the trigger, when I shoot I shoot to kill
I’m a hero down in Rio, where they talk about me still
Once I robbed a big ranchero, who was rich beyond compare
And to ransom held his daughter, she was young and she was fair
Ol?©, a cangachero, your band it’s for Brazil
Ol?©, he is bandit, the band it’s for Brazil
She was sweet and she was tender, there was love light in her eyes
In my arms she soon surrendered, very much to my surprise
I refused her father’s ransom and I kept the greater prize
Now at night we ride together 'neath the blue Brazilian sky
Adios, your band it’s for Brazil
Adios a cangachero, your band it’s for Brazil
