[Verse 1]
Let me tell you about
Faces I see
The stately, the rugged
Over and over
Under dirt
And sun umbrellas
Their eyes on the gun

[Verse 2]
Some puppy eyes
Some fierce lady eyes
Some warm gentleman eyes
But some eyes
That can't look into mine
Look into mine

[Chorus 1]
"Bandido"
They call me
No one knows the story
I hate an imperious glance
In the gold country

[Verse 3]
I'm writing her a love song
How we fall into a dream in the rocks
Our rocks
But they found me there
Chased after me
I crawled away quickly
Wasn't sure if I was lost or if I was running away again
[Verse 4]
Up what you now call the 14
I was a runner up the 14
Their mouths move to say
They wanna be the good guys
They wanna be triumphant

[Chorus 2]
They put me to sleep
On diagonal rocks
So no one tells the story
Of Bandido
In the gold country

[Outro]
They call me
I hate an imperious glance
In the gold country
"Bandido"
No one tells the story
In the gold country
In the gold country
