Ole, I am a bandit
The bandit of 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
Ole, I am a bandit
The bandit of 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 to you, amigo
Adios to you, my friend
Ole, O' Cangachero
The bandit of Brazil
Ole, ole, ole, ole
Ole, ole, ole, ole
