Bandits of the Desert

[Verse] Dusty boots stompin’, Lampião got the bandana, Desert wind blowing hotter than savannah. Maria Bonita, queen with the bandolier, Eyes fierce, whisper death in the pioneer. [Verse] Outlaws in the Caatinga, shadows on the sand, Legend written deep in this forsaken land. Sippin' from the cactus, blood soaking the floor, Bandits in the night, thunder rolls, hear the roar. [Chorus] Cangaceiros, rebels with no surrender, Lampião, Bonita, love's eternal splendor. Stormin' through the wind, tales carved in stone, Bandits of the desert, never ride alone. [Bridge] Their romance, a saga told by the campfire, Thieves of the heart, both gun and lyre. Hid beneath the moon, hearts punctured by the stars, Freedom tasted sweeter when forbidden, behind bars. [Verse] Gunpowder’s their musk, bullets their affection, Defy the state, sign with a bloody faction. Skippin' past the law, outlastin' retreat, Eternal flame in shadows, hear the heartbeat. [Chorus] Cangaceiros, rebels with no surrender, Lampião, Bonita, love's eternal splendor. Stormin' through the wind, tales carved in stone, Bandits of the desert, never ride alone.
