El Paso [Live at Aarhus University, Aarhus, Denmark 4/16/1972[00:00:00]

Out in the west Texas town of El Paso[00:00:13]

I fell in love with a Mexican girl[00:00:16]

Nighttime would find me at Rosa's Cantina[00:00:22]

Music would play and Felina would whirl[00:00:25]

Black as the night were the eyes of Felina[00:00:31]

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

My love was strong for this Mexiacn maiden[00:00:40]

I was in love but in vain I could tell[00:00:43]

One night a wily young cowboy came in[00:00:49]

Wild as the west Texas wind[00:00:52]

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

With wicked Felina the girl that I loved[00:01:04]

So in anger[00:01:07]

I challenged his right for the heart of the maiden[00:01:10]

Down went his hand for the gun that he wore[00:01:13]

My challenge was answered in less than a heartbeat[00:01:19]

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

Just for a moment I stood there in silence[00:01:28]

Shocked at the foul evil deed I had done[00:01:31]

Many thoughts raced through[00:01:37]

My mind as I stood there[00:01:38]

I had but one chance and that was to run[00:01:40]

Out through the back door of Rosa's I ran[00:01:46]

Out where the horses were tied[00:01:49]

I picked a good one it looked like he could run[00:01:57]

Up on his back and away I did ride[00:02:01]

Just as fast as I[00:02:04]

Could from the west Texas town of El Paso[00:02:06]

Out through the Badlands of New Mexico[00:02:10]

Back in El Paso my life would be worthless[00:02:15]

Everything's gone in life nothing is left[00:02:19]

It's been so long since[00:02:24]

I've seen the young maiden[00:02:26]

My love is stronger than my fear of death[00:02:28]

I saddled up and away I did go[00:02:33]

Riding alone in the dark[00:02:37]

Maybe tomorrow a bullet may find me[00:02:45]

But anything's worth this pain in my heart[00:02:48]

Now at last here I[00:02:52]

Am on the hill overlooking El Paso[00:02:54]

I can see Rosa's Cantina below[00:02:57]

My love is strong and it pushes me onward[00:03:03]

Down off the hill to Felina I go[00:03:06]

Off to my right I see five mounted cowboys[00:03:12]

Off to my left ride a dozen or more[00:03:16]

Shouting and shooting[00:03:21]

I can't let them catch me[00:03:23]

I've got to make it to Rosa's back door[00:03:25]

Suddenly something is wrong for I feel[00:03:31]

A deep burning pain in my side[00:03:34]

It's getting harder to stay in the saddle[00:03:42]

I'm getting weary unable to ride[00:03:45]

But my love for[00:03:49]

Felina is strong and I rise where I've fallen[00:03:51]

Though I am weary I can't stop to rest[00:03:55]

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

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

From out of nowhere Felina has found me[00:04:10]

Kissing my cheek as she kneels by my side[00:04:13]

Cradled by two loving arms that I'll die for[00:04:19]

One little kiss and Felina[00:04:22]

Good[00:04:26]

Bye[00:04:28]
