The modern day Thieves of San
Lorenzo were formed in 1999,
and are based in Pinellas
County, Florida,
but we owe our inspiration and our motto,
"We'll Steal
Your Heart",
to a brave group of women from the
legendary and mystical Caribbean.
The
chronicles tell of a quiet and beautiful settlement in tropical San
Lorenzo
that was
repeatedly victimized by Pirates while the men were away at war.
A group of
adventurous ladies decided to strike back and "steal" back
what was theirs,
thus winning the "hearts" of the San Lorenzo citizens.

On the
Isle of San Lorenzo,
Where Honor and friendship reign,
An Adventurous
group of women
Cherish all they have gained.
Protecting their tropical isle,
Lorenzo's men head off to war.
Yet
lose their majestic treasures
To the pirates who'd come ashore.
Hence,
Lorenzo's bravest women
Strike back with all their might.
They reclaim
Lorenzo's riches and Steal
The hearts of the isle with delight!
We, the
Thieves of San Lorenzo,
Salute you with our champagne
For we know the
greatest treasures we have
Are the hearts of the friends we've gained!
