El Paso
[00:00.12] ♫ ♪
[00:05.98] Out in the West Texas
[00:11.02] Town of El Paso
[00:12.61] I fell in love
[00:13.94] With a Mexican girl
[00:17.13] Nighttime would find me
[00:20.31] In Rosa's cantina
[00:22.17] Music would play
[00:23.50] And Felina would whirl
[00:26.43] Blacker than night
[00:29.61] Were the eyes of Felina
[00:31.74] Wicked and evil
[00:33.07] While casting a spell
[00:36.54] My love was deep
[00:38.93] For this Mexican maiden
[00:41.05] I was in love
[00:42.11] But in vain I could tell
[00:45.56] One night
[00:47.95] A wild young cowboy came in
[00:50.62] Wild as the West Texas wind
[00:57.52] Dashing and daring
[01:00.72] A drink he was sharing
[01:02.58] With wicked Felina
[01:03.90] The girl that I loved
[01:06.57] So in anger
[01:08.42] I challenged his right
[01:09.75] For the love of this maiden
[01:11.87] Down went his hand
[01:13.20] For the gun that he wore
[01:16.66] My challenge was answered
[01:19.32] In less than a heartbeat
[01:21.17] The handsome young stranger
[01:22.50] Lay dead on the floor
[01:25.96] Just for a moment
[01:28.61] I stood there in silence
[01:30.73] Shocked by the foul
[01:32.33] Evil deed I had done
[01:35.25] Many thoughts raced
[01:38.17] Through my mind
[01:38.97] As I stood there
[01:40.30] I had but one chance
[01:41.62] And that was to run
[01:44.01] Out through the back door
[01:47.47] Of Rosa's I ran
[01:49.33] Out where the horses were tied
[01:56.24] I caught a good one
[01:59.42] It looked like it could run
[02:01.29] Up on its back
[02:02.62] And away I did ride
[02:04.76] Just as fast as I could
[02:07.94] From the West Texas town of El Paso
[02:10.59] Out to the badlands
[02:12.19] Of New Mexico
[02:15.64] Back in El Paso
[02:17.76] My life would be worthless
[02:19.89] Everything's gone in life
[02:21.76] Nothing is left
[02:23.61] It's been so long since
[02:27.06] I've seen the young maiden
[02:29.19] My love is stronger
[02:30.51] Than my fear of death
[02:33.71] I saddled up
[02:36.36] And away I did go
[02:38.22] Riding alone in the dark
[02:45.65] Maybe tomorrow
[02:48.05] A bullet may find me
[02:50.18] Tonight nothing's worse
[02:51.51] Than this pain in my heart
[02:53.89] And at last here I am on the hill
[02:57.35] Overlooking El Paso
[02:59.47] I can see Rosa's cantina below
[03:03.99] My love is strong
[03:06.64] And it pushes me onward
[03:08.76] Down off the hill
[03:10.09] To Felina I go
[03:13.28] Something is dreadfully wrong
[03:16.74] For I feel
[03:18.06] A deep burning pain in my side
[03:26.29] Though I am trying
[03:27.89] To stay in the saddle
[03:29.75] I'm getting weary, unable to ride
[03:33.20] But my love for Felina
[03:36.39] Is strong and I rise
[03:37.72] Where I've fallen
[03:39.06] Though I am weary
[03:40.38] I can't stop to rest
[03:44.36] I see the white puff
[03:46.48] Of smoke from the rifle
[03:48.35] I feel the bullet
[03:49.67] Go deep in my chest
[03:53.92] From out of nowhere
[03:55.79] Felina has found me
[03:57.91] Kissing my cheek
[03:58.70] As she kneels by my side
[04:02.69] Cradled by two loving arms
[04:05.88] That I'll die for
[04:06.94] One little kiss
[04:08.27] And Felina, goodbye
[04:15.70] ♫
