El Paso - Marty Robbins[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 find me in Rosa's cantina[00:00:19]

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

Blacker than night were the eyes of Felina[00:00:29]

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

My love was deep 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 loved[00:01:03]

So in anger I challenged his right for the love of this maiden[00:01:07]

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]

Out through the back door of Rosa's I ran[00:01:28]

Out where the horses were tied[00:01:32]

I caught a good one it looked like it could run[00:01:41]

Up on its back and away I did ride[00:01:44]

Just as fast as I could from the West Texas town of El Paso[00:01:48]

Out to the badlands of New Mexico[00:01:53]

Back in El Paso my life would be worthless[00:01:59]

Everything's gone in life nothing is left[00:02:03]

It's been so long since I've seen the young maiden[00:02:09]

My love is stronger than my fear of death[00:02:12]

I saddled up and away I did go[00:02:18]

Riding alone in the dark[00:02:21]

Maybe tomorrow a bullet will find me[00:02:30]

Tonight nothing's worse than this pain in my heart[00:02:33]

And at last here I am on the hill overlooking El Paso[00:02:37]

I can see Rosa's Cantina below[00:02:43]

My love is strong and it pushes me onward[00:02:49]

Down off the hill to Felina I go[00:02:52]

Off to my right I see five mounted cowboys[00:02:58]

Off to my left ride a dozen or more[00:03:02]

Shouting and shooting I can't let them catch me[00:03:08]

I have to make it to Rosa's back door[00:03:11]

Something is dreadfully wrong for I feel[00:03:17]

A deep burning pain in my side[00:03:20]

Though I am trying to stay in the saddle[00:03:29]

I'm getting weary unable to ride[00:03:32]

But my love for Felina is strong and I rise where I've fallen[00:03:36]

Though I am weary I can't stop to rest[00:03:41]

I see the white puff of smoke from the rifle[00:03:48]

I feel the bullet go deep in my chest[00:03:51]

From out of nowhere Felina has found me[00:03:57]

Kissing my cheek as she kneels by my side[00:04:01]

Cradled by two loving arms that I'll die for[00:04:06]

One little kiss then Felina good-bye[00:04:10]
