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

Houston October 14 1977) - Grateful Dead[00:00:04]

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

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

Nighttime would fine me in roses cantina [00:00:27]

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

Black as the night were the eyes of felina [00:00:35]

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

My love was strong 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 [00:00:52]

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

Dashing and daring a drink he was sharing [00:00:57]

With wicked felina the girl that I love [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 the gun that he wore [00:01:13]

My challenge was answered [00:01:18]

In less than a heartbeat[00:01:20]

The handsome young stranger lay dead on the floor [00:01:21]

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

Shocked by the foul evil deed I had done [00:01:30]

Many thoughts ran through my mind as I stood there;[00:01:34]

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

Out through the back door of roses I ran [00:01:43]

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

I picked a good one; he looked like he could run [00:01:53]

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

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

From the west texas town of el paso [00:02:01]

Out thru the badlands of new mexico [00:02:04]

Back in el paso my life would be worthless;[00:02:09]

Everythings gone in life nothing is left [00:02:12]

But it's been so long since[00:02:17]

I've seen the young maiden [00:02:19]

My love is stronger that my fear of death [00:02:21]

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 this pain in my heart [00:02:38]

And as last here I am on the hill overlooking el paso [00:02:42]

I can see roses cantina below [00:02:47]

My love is strong and it pushes me onward [00:02:52]

Down off the hill to felina 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; I can't let them catch me [00:03:08]

I've got to make it to roses back door [00:03:11]

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

I feel a deep burning pain in my heart[00:03:18]

It's getting harder to stay in the saddle [00:03:27]

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

But my love for felina 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 felina has found me [00:03:51]

Kissing my cheek as she kneels by my side [00:03:53]

Cradled by two loving arms that I'll die for [00:03:58]

One little kiss and felina good-bye[00:04:02]
