El Paso (Wembley Empire Pool London England 4/7/1972) - Grateful Dead[00:00:00]

Out in the west Texas town of El Paso[00:00:22]

I fell in love with a Mexican girl[00:00:25]

Nighttime would find me in Rose's cantina[00:00:31]

Music would play and Felina would whirl[00:00:34]

Black as the night were the eyes of Felina[00:00:40]

Wicked and evil while casting a spell[00:00:43]

My love was strong for this Mexican maiden[00:00:49]

I was in love but in vain I could tell[00:00:52]

One night a wild young cowboy came in[00:00:58]

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

Dashing and daring a drink he was sharing[00:01:09]

With wicked Felina the girl that I love[00:01:13]

So in anger I challenged[00:01:16]

His right for the love of this maiden[00:01:19]

Down went his hand for the gun that he wore[00:01:22]

My challenge was answered in less than a heartbeat[00:01:27]

The handsome young stranger lay dead on the floor[00:01:31]

Just for a moment I stood there in silence[00:01:36]

Shocked by the foul evil deed I had done[00:01:40]

Many thoughts raced through my mind as I stood there[00:01:46]

I had but one chance and that was to run[00:01:49]

Out through the back door of roses I ran[00:01:55]

Out where the horses were tied[00:01:58]

I picked a good one it looked like he could run[00:02:06]

Up on his back and away I did ride[00:02:09]

Just as fast as I could from the west Texas town of El Paso[00:02:13]

Out through the badlands of new Mexico[00:02:18]

Back in El Paso my life would be worthless[00:02:24]

Everything is gone in life nothing is left[00:02:28]

But it's been so long since I've seen the young maiden[00:02:33]

My love is stronger that my fear of death[00:02:37]

I saddled up and away I did go[00:02:43]

Riding alone in the dark[00:02:46]

Maybe tomorrow a bullet may find me[00:02:55]

Tonight nothing's worse than this pain in my heart[00:02:57]

But at last here I am on the hill overlooking El Paso[00:03:01]

I can see Rose's cantina below[00:03:07]

My love is strong and it pushes me onward[00:03:13]

Down off the hill to Felina I go[00:03:16]

Off to my right I see five mounted cowboys[00:03:22]

Off to my left ride a dozen or more[00:03:25]

Shouting and shooting I can't let them catch me[00:03:31]

I've got to make it to Rose's back door[00:03:34]

Something is dreadfully wrong for I feel[00:03:40]

A deep burning pain in my side[00:03:44]

It's getting harder to stay in the saddle[00:03:53]

I'm getting weary unable to ride[00:03:55]

But my love for Felina is strong[00:03:59]

And I rise where I've fallen[00:04:02]

Though I am weary I can't stop to rest[00:04:04]

I see the white puff of smoke from the rifle[00:04:11]

I feel the bullet go deep in my chest[00:04:14]

From out of nowhere Felina has found me[00:04:20]

Kissing my cheek as she kneels by my side[00:04:22]

Cradled by two loving arms that I'll die for[00:04:29]

One little kiss and Felina goodbye[00:04:32]
