El Paso (Tivoii Concert Hall Copenhagen Denmark 4/14/1972) - Grateful Dead[00:00:01]

Out in the west Texas town of El Paso[00:00:12]

I fell in love with a Mexican girl[00:00:15]

Nighttime would fine me in Rosa's Cantina[00:00:20]

Music would play and Felina would whirl[00:00:23]

Black as the night were the eyes of Felina[00:00:28]

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

My love was strong for this Mexican maiden[00:00:36]

I was in love but in vain I could tell[00:00:40]

One night a wild young cowboy came in wild[00:00:45]

As the west Texas wind[00:00:47]

Dashing and daring a drink he was sharing[00:00:55]

With wicked Felina the girl that I love[00:00:58]

So in anger I challenged his right for the love of this maiden[00:01:01]

Down went his hand for the gun that he wore[00:01:06]

My challenge was answered in less than a heartbeat[00:01:11]

The handsome young stranger lay dead on the floor[00:01:15]

Just for a moment I stood there in silence[00:01:20]

Shocked by the foul evil deed I had done[00:01:23]

Many thoughts ran through[00:01:28]

My mind as I stood there[00:01:29]

I had but one chance and that was to run[00:01:30]

Out through the back door of rose's[00:01:36]

I ran out where the horses were tied[00:01:38]

I picked a good one[00:01:46]

He looked like he could run[00:01:47]

Up on his back and away I did ride[00:01:49]

Just as fast as I could from the west[00:01:52]

Texas town of El Paso[00:01:55]

Out through the badlands of New Mexico[00:01:58]

Back in El Paso my life would be worthless[00:02:03]

Everything's gone in life nothing is left[00:02:05]

But it's been so long since[00:02:10]

I've seen the young maiden[00:02:12]

My love is stronger that my fear of death[00:02:14]

I saddled up and away[00:02:19]

I did go riding alone in the dark[00:02:20]

Maybe tomorrow a bullet may find me[00:02:29]

Tonight nothing's worse than this pain in my heart[00:02:32]

And as last here I am on the hill overlooking El Paso[00:02:35]

I can see Rosa's Cantina below[00:02:40]

My love is strong and it pushes me onward[00:02:45]

Down off the hill to Felina I go[00:02:48]

Off to my right I see five mounted cowboys[00:02:53]

Off to my left ride a dozen or more[00:02:56]

Shouting and shooting[00:03:01]

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

I've got to make it to rose's back door[00:03:04]

Something is dreadfully wrong for I feel[00:03:10]

A deep burning pain in my side[00:03:12]

Though I am trying to stay in the saddle[00:03:20]

I'm getting weary unable to ride[00:03:23]

But my love for[00:03:25]

Felina is strong and I writhe where I've fallen[00:03:27]

Though I am weary I can't stop to rest[00:03:31]

I see the white puff of smoke from the rifle[00:03:36]

I feel the bullet go deep in my chest[00:03:39]

From out of nowhere Felina has found me[00:03:44]

Kissing my cheek as she kneels by my side[00:03:47]

Cradled by two loving arms that I'll die for[00:03:52]

One little kiss and Felina good-bye[00:03:55]
