Ole, I am a bandit
A 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, With her I lingered
'Neath blue Brazilian skies

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 skies

Adios to you, Amigo
Adios I'm on my way

Ole, O Cangachero
The Bandit of Brazil

(Instrumental)

Ole, Ole
Ole, Ole...
