Olé, a cangachero, your band it's for Brazil Olé, 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 Olé, a cangachero, your band it's for Brazil Olé, 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
