歌词
A sweet country tune to come and get you through
A lonely night you're havin' with no companions
Tonight this lullaby's for you
A blue desert moon comin' into view
Because you've made a living' drinkin' whiskey and stealin'
Tonight you're runnin' from the noose
A lonesome bandido singin' bandido blues
Hasn't been able to take off his boots
Ain't got a woman or life to come home to
Lonesome bandido singin' bandido blues
A bounty on his head for shootin' three men dead
Runnin' for the border to escape law and order
Tonight his cold heart's full of dread
The law is on his tail not to put him into jail
If they catch him by the mornin' they'll shoot him with no warnin'
Tonight he's midnight ridin' the trail
A lonesome bandido singin' bandido blues
He's known as an outlaw deep down he knows its true
Livin' at the dancehall what has his life come too
Lonesome bandido singin' bandido blues
He stumbled on a mission
Was led to pray and listen
Told of hell and heaven
A man who saved us from damnation
What's lost is now in lost and found
A lonesome bandido singin' bandido blues
The law and life is closin' in
He'll be dead by high noon
It dawns on him what he's done
What is he gonna do
Maybe he'll change himself and find redemption soon
Redemption soon oh listen to
Oh listen to bandido blues
Listen here another soul's been saved
