El Paso (Live at Denver Coliseum, Denver, CO 11/21/73) - Grateful Dead (感恩而死)[00:00:00]

Out in the west Texas town of el paso[00:00:16]

I fell in love with a Mexican girl[00:00:19]

Nighttime would fine me in roses cantina[00:00:24]

Music would play and felina would whirl[00:00:27]

Black as the night were the eyes of felina[00:00:32]

Wicked and evil while casting a spell[00:00:34]

My love was strong for this Mexican maiden[00:00:39]

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

One night a wild young cowboy came in[00:00:47]

Wild as the west Texas wind[00:00:49]

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

With wicked felina the girl that I love[00:00:59]

So in anger I challenged his right[00:01:02]

For the love of this maiden[00:01:05]

Down went his hand for the gun that he wore[00:01:07]

My challenge was answered in less than a heartbeat[00:01:12]

The handsome young stranger lay dead on the floor[00:01:14]

Just for a moment I stood there in silence[00:01:19]

Shocked by the foul evil deed I had done[00:01:22]

Many thoughts ran through my mind as I stood there[00:01:27]

I had but one chance and that was to run[00:01:29]

Out through the back door of roses I ran[00:01:34]

Out where the horses were tied[00:01:37]

I picked a good one he looked like he could run[00:01:44]

Up on his back and away I did ride[00:01:46]

Just as fast as[00:01:50]

I could from the west Texas town of el paso[00:01:51]

Out thru the badlands of new mexico[00:01:54]

Back in el paso my life would be worthless[00:01:59]

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

But it's been so long since I've seen the young maiden[00:02:06]

My love is stronger that my fear of death[00:02:09]

I saddled up and away[00:02:14]

I did go riding alone in the dark[00:02:16]

Maybe tomorrow a bullet may find me[00:02:24]

Tonight nothings worse than this pain in my heart[00:02:27]

And as last here I am on the hill overlooking el paso[00:02:30]

I can see roses cantina below[00:02:34]

My love is strong and it pushes me onward[00:02:40]

Down off the hill to felina I go[00:02:42]

Off to my right I see five mounted cowboys[00:02:47]

Off to my left ride a dozen or more[00:02:49]

Shouting and shooting I can't let them catch me[00:02:54]

I've got to make it to roses back door[00:02:57]

Something is dreadfully wrong[00:03:02]

For I feel a deep burning pain in my[00:03:04]

Sight[00:03:06]

It's getting harder to stay in the saddle[00:03:12]

I'm getting weary unable to ride[00:03:15]

But my love for felina is strong[00:03:18]

And I rise where I've fallen[00:03:21]

Though I am weary I can't stop to rest[00:03:22]

I see the white puff of smoke from the rifle[00:03:27]

I feel the bullet go deep in my chest[00:03:30]

From out of nowhere felina has found me[00:03:35]

Kissing my cheek as she kneels by my side[00:03:38]

Cradled by two loving arms that Ill die for[00:03:43]

One little kiss and felina[00:03:45]

Good bye[00:03:49]
