The Bandit
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
They call you the bandit
An outlaw untamed
Shackled only by freedom
You wear no man's chain
Some say they despise you
Well maybe they do
But deep down inside them
I bet they wish they were you
Bandit you're reckless
And you live much too hard
Bandit you're the joker
In the deal of the cards
You're a legend to the old man
A hero to the child
Bandit steal a lady's heart
With only a smile
They call you the bandit
They call you the bandit
They call you the bandit
They call you the bandit..
