The Bandit

The Shadows

Chorus 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.
 
Chorus 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
