El Paso (Live at Hofheinz Pavillion, Houston, October 14, 1977) - Grateful Dead (感恩而死)[00:00:00]

Out in the west Texas town of El Paso[00:00:19]

I fell in love with a Mexican girl[00:00:22]

Night time would find me in Rosa's Cantina[00:00:27]

Music would play and Feleena would whirl[00:00:30]

Blacker than night were the eyes of Feleena[00:00:35]

Wicked and evil while casting a spell[00:00:38]

My love was stopped for this Mexican maiden[00:00:43]

I was in love but in vain I could tell[00:00:46]

One night a wild young cowboy came in[00:00:51]

Wild as the west Texas wind[00:00:54]

Dashing and daring a drink he was sharing[00:01:02]

With wicked Feleena the girl that I loved[00:01:04]

So in anger I challenged his right[00:01:08]

For the love of this maiden[00:01:11]

Down went his hand for[00:01:13]

The gun that he wore[00:01:14]

My challenge was answered[00:01:18]

In less than a heartbeat[00:01:19]

The handsome young stranger[00:01:21]

Lay dead on the floor[00:01:22]

Just for a moment I stood there in silence[00:01:26]

Shocked by the foul evil deed I had done[00:01:29]

Many thoughts raced through my mind[00:01:34]

As I stood there[00:01:36]

I had but one chance and that was to run[00:01:37]

Out through the back door of Rosa's I ran[00:01:42]

Out where the horses were tied[00:01:45]

I caught a good one it looked like it could run[00:01:53]

Up on its back and away I did ride[00:01:56]

Just as fast as I could from[00:01:59]

The west Texas town of El Paso[00:02:01]

Out to the badlands of New Mexico[00:02:04]

Back in El Paso my life would be worthless[00:02:09]

Everything's gone in life nothing is left[00:02:12]

It's been so long[00:02:17]

Since I've seen the young maiden[00:02:18]

My love is stronger than my fear of death[00:02:20]

I saddled up and away I did go[00:02:25]

Riding alone in the dark[00:02:28]

Maybe tomorrow a bullet may find me[00:02:36]

Tonight nothings worse than[00:02:38]

This pain in my heart[00:02:40]

And at last here I am on the hill[00:02:42]

Overlooking El Paso[00:02:45]

I can see Rosa's Cantina below[00:02:47]

My love is strong[00:02:52]

And it pushes me onward[00:02:53]

Down off the hill to Feleena I go[00:02:55]

Off to my right I see five mounted cowboys[00:03:00]

Off to my left ride a dozen or more[00:03:03]

Shouting and shooting[00:03:08]

I can't let them catch me[00:03:09]

I have to make it to Rosa's back door[00:03:11]

Something is dreadfully wrong for I feel[00:03:16]

Burning pain in my side[00:03:19]

Though I am trying to stay in the saddle[00:03:26]

I'm getting weary unable to ride[00:03:29]

But my love for Feleena is strong[00:03:32]

And I rise where I've fallen[00:03:35]

Though I am weary I can't stop to rest[00:03:37]

I see the white puff of smoke from the rifle[00:03:42]

I feel the bullet go deep in my chest[00:03:45]

From out of nowhere[00:03:50]

Feleena has found me[00:03:52]

Kissing my cheek[00:03:53]

As she kneels by my side[00:03:54]

Cradled by two loving arms[00:03:58]

That I'll die for[00:04:00]

One little kiss then Feleena goodbye[00:04:01]
