Banditismo Por Uma Questão De Classe

Some time ago people talked about bandits
Some time ago people talked about a solution
Some time ago people talked about progress
Some time ago I watched television

Galeguinho do Coque wasn't afraid, he didn't
Wasn't afraid of the hairy leg
Biu with the green eye had sex, he did
Had sex with his pliers

Hey, climb the hill, slope, stream, alley, slum
The police behind them and they on her tail
It happens today and it happened in the backlands
When a bunch of monkeys chased Lampião
And what he said many still say today
"I carry with me: courage, money, and bullets!"
On each hill a different story
That the police kill innocent people
And those who were innocent have now become bandits
To be able to eat a piece of bread all messed up

Banditry out of pure malice
Banditry out of necessity

Banditry due to a class issue
