El Paso - The Countdown[00:00:00]

Out in the west texas town of el paso[00:00:10]

I fell in love with a mexican girl[00:00:13]

Nighttime would fine me in roses cantina[00:00:19]

Music would play and felina would whirl[00:00:22]

Black as the night were the eyes of felina[00:00:29]

Wicked and evil while casting a spell[00:00:32]

My love was strong for this mexican maiden[00:00:38]

I was in love but in vain I could tell[00:00:42]

One night a wild young cowboy came in[00:00:48]

Wild as the west texas wind[00:00:51]

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

With wicked felina the girl that I love[00:01:03]

So in anger I challenged his right[00:01:07]

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[00:01:19]

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

The handsome young stranger lay dead on the floor[00:01:22]

Just for a moment I stood there in silence[00:01:29]

Shocked by the foul evil deed I had done[00:01:32]

Many thoughts ran through my mind as I stood there[00:01:38]

I had but one chance and that was to run[00:01:42]

Out through the back door of roses I ran[00:01:48]

Out where the horses were tied[00:01:51]

I picked a good one he looked like he could run[00:02:00]

Up on his back and away I did ride[00:02:03]

Just as fast as I could from the west texas town of el paso[00:02:07]

Out thru the badlands of new mexico[00:02:13]

Back in el paso my life would be worthless[00:02:19]

Everythings gone in life nothing is left[00:02:22]

But it's been so long since I've seen the young maiden[00:02:28]

My love is stronger that my fear of death[00:02:32]

I saddled up and away I did go riding alone in the dark[00:02:38]

Maybe tomorrow a bullet may find me[00:02:50]

Tonight nothings worse than this pain in my heart[00:02:54]

And as last here I am on the hill overlooking el paso[00:02:58]

I can see roses cantina below[00:03:03]

My love is strong[00:03:10]

And it pushes me onward down off the hill to felina I go[00:03:11]

Off to my right I see five mounted cowboys[00:03:19]

Off to my left ride a dozen or more[00:03:22]

Shouting and shooting I can't let them catch me[00:03:29]

I've got to make it to roses back door[00:03:32]

Something is dreadfully wrong for like me[00:03:38]

I feel a deep burning pain in my soul[00:03:42]

Do I am trying to stay in the saddle[00:03:51]

I'm getting weary unable to ride[00:03:54]

But my love for felina is strong[00:03:58]

And I rise where I've fallen[00:04:01]

Though I am weary I can't stop to rest[00:04:03]

I see the white puff of smoke from the rifle[00:04:10]

I feel the bullet go deep in my chest[00:04:13]

From out of nowhere felina has found me[00:04:20]

Kissing my cheek as she kneels by my side[00:04:23]

Cradled by two loving arms that I'll die for[00:04:29]

One little kiss and felina good-bye[00:04:32]
