El Paso - Grateful Dead[00:00:01]

Out in the west Texas[00:00:27]

Town of El Paso[00:00:29]

I fell in love with a Mexican girl[00:00:30]

Nighttime would find me[00:00:35]

In Rose's cantina[00:00:37]

Music would play and[00:00:37]

Felina would whirl[00:00:40]

Black as the night were[00:00:44]

The eyes of Felina[00:00:46]

Wicked and evil while casting a spell[00:00:48]

My love was strong for[00:00:53]

This Mexican maiden[00:00:55]

I was in love but in vain[00:00:57]

I could tell[00:00:58]

One night a wild young cowboy[00:01:02]

Came in[00:01:04]

Wild as the west Texas wind[00:01:05]

Dashing and daring [00:01:09]

A drink he was sharing[00:01:16]

With wicked Felina [00:01:17]

The girl that I love[00:01:18]

So in anger I challenged his right[00:01:21]

For the love of this maiden[00:01:24]

Down went his hand for the gun[00:01:26]

That he wore[00:01:28]

My challenge was answered[00:01:32]

In less than a heartbeat[00:01:34]

The handsome young stranger[00:01:35]

Lay dead on the floor[00:01:37]

Just for a moment I stood there[00:01:41]

In silence[00:01:44]

Shocked by the foul evil[00:01:44]

Deed I had done[00:01:46]

Many thoughts raced through[00:01:50]

My mind as I stood there[00:01:52]

I had but one chance[00:01:54]

And that was to run[00:01:55]

Out through the back[00:01:59]

Door of roses I ran[00:02:00]

Out where the horses were tied[00:02:03]

I picked a good one [00:02:11]

It looked like he could run[00:02:13]

Up on his back and away I did ride[00:02:15]

Just as fast as I could[00:02:18]

From the west Texas town of El Paso[00:02:21]

Out through the badlands of new Mexico[00:02:23]

Back in El Paso my life[00:02:29]

Would be worthless[00:02:32]

Everything is gone in life [00:02:32]

Nothing is left[00:02:35]

But it's been so long since[00:02:39]

I've seen the young maiden[00:02:40]

My love is stronger[00:02:42]

That my fear of death[00:02:44]

I saddled up and away I did go [00:02:48]

Riding alone in the dark[00:02:51]

Maybe tomorrow a bullet may find me[00:03:00]

Tonight nothing's worse[00:03:03]

Than this pain in my heart[00:03:04]

But at last here I am[00:03:07]

On the hill overlooking El Paso[00:03:10]

I can see Rose's cantina below[00:03:13]

My love is strong[00:03:18]

And it pushes me onward[00:03:19]

Down off the hill to Felina I go[00:03:22]

Off to my right I see[00:03:27]

Five mounted cowboys[00:03:29]

Off to my left ride a dozen[00:03:31]

Or more[00:03:33]

Shouting and shooting [00:03:37]

I can't let them catch me[00:03:38]

I've got to make it to[00:03:40]

Rose's back door[00:03:42]

Something is dreadfully wrong for I feel[00:03:46]

A deep burning pain in my side[00:03:49]

It's getting harder[00:03:57]

To stay in the saddle[00:03:59]

I'm getting weary unable to ride[00:04:01]

But my love for Felina is strong[00:04:05]

And I rise where I've fallen[00:04:09]

Though I am weary [00:04:10]

I can't stop to rest[00:04:11]

I see the white puff of[00:04:16]

Smoke from the rifle[00:04:17]

I feel the bullet go deep[00:04:20]

In my chest[00:04:22]

From out of nowhere[00:04:25]

Felina has found me[00:04:27]

Kissing my cheek as[00:04:28]

She kneels by my side[00:04:30]

Cradled by two loving[00:04:35]

Arms that I'll die for[00:04:36]

One little kiss and Felina goodbye[00:04:38]
