El Paso - Pat Boone[00:00:00]
Out in the west texas town of el paso[00:00:05]
I fell in love with a mexican girl[00:00:08]
Nighttime would fine me in roses cantina[00:00:15]
Music would play and felina would whirl[00:00:18]
Black as the night were the eyes of felina[00:00:24]
Wicked and evil while casting a spell[00:00:28]
My love was strong for this mexican maiden[00:00:34]
I was in love but in vain I could tell[00:00:37]
One night a wild young cowboy came in[00:00:44]
Wild as the west texas wind[00:00:47]
Dashing and daring a drink he was sharing[00:00:56]
With wicked felina the girl that I love[00:00:59]
So in anger I challenged his right[00:01:03]
For the love of this maiden[00:01:07]
Down went his hand for the gun that he wore[00:01:09]
My challenge was answered[00:01:15]
In less than a heartbeat[00:01:17]
The handsome young stranger lay dead on the floor[00:01:19]
Just for a moment I stood there in silence[00:01:25]
Shocked by the foul evil deed I had done[00:01:29]
Many thoughts ran through my mind as I stood there[00:01:35]
I had but one chance and that was to run[00:01:39]
Out through the back door of roses I ran[00:01:44]
Out where the horses were tied[00:01:48]
I picked a good one he looked like he could run[00:01:57]
Up on his back and away I did ride[00:02:00]
Just as fast as I could from the west texas town of el paso[00:02:04]
Out thru the badlands of new mexico[00:02:10]
Back in el paso my life would be worthless[00:02:16]
Everythings gone in life nothing is left[00:02:19]
But it's been so long since I've seen the young maiden[00:02:26]
My love is stronger that my fear of death[00:02:29]
I saddled up and away I did go riding alone in the dark[00:02:35]
Maybe tomorrow a bullet may find me[00:02:48]
Tonight nothings worse than this pain in my heart[00:02:51]
And as last here I am on the hill overlooking el paso[00:02:55]
I can see roses cantina below[00:03:01]
My love is strong[00:03:07]
And it pushes me onward down off the hill to felina I go[00:03:08]
Off to my right I see five mounted cowboys[00:03:17]
Off to my left ride a dozen or more[00:03:21]
Shouting and shooting I can't let them catch me[00:03:27]
I've got to make it to roses back door[00:03:30]
Something is dreadfully wrong for like me[00:03:36]
I feel a deep burning pain in my soul[00:03:40]
Do I am trying to stay in the saddle[00:03:49]
I'm getting weary unable to ride[00:03:52]
But my love for felina is strong[00:03:56]
And I rise where I've fallen[00:04:00]
Though I am weary I can't stop to rest[00:04:02]
I see the white puff of smoke from the rifle[00:04:08]
I feel the bullet go deep in my chest[00:04:12]
From out of nowhere felina has found me[00:04:18]
Kissing my cheek as she kneels by my side[00:04:22]
Cradled by two loving arms that I'll die for[00:04:28]
One little kiss and felina good-bye[00:04:31]
