Once I had a heart cold as ice
Love to me was only for fun
I'd make a mark for each broken heart
Like notches on the butt of a gun

Once I had a trick up my sleeve
A reputation all over town
I was heartless and cold, wherever I'd go
I shot down every young boy I found

Yes, I used to be a moonlight bandit
I used to be a heartbreak kid
Then I met you and the next thing I knew
There I was, oh, shot full of love

Who'd have thought that someone like you
Could take a desperado like me
But, oh, here I am, I'm as meek as a lam
With my bleeding heart there at your feet

Yes, I used to be a moonlight bandit
I used to be a heartbreak kid
Then I met you and the next thing I knew
There I was, oh, shot full of love

I used to be a moonlight bandit
I used to be a heartbreak kid
Then I met you and the next thing I knew
There I was

I used to be a moonlight bandit
I used to be a heartbreak kid
Then I met you and the next thing I knew
There I was, oh, shot full of love
