《El Paso(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] El Paso (Album Version) - Michael Martin Murphey

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

[00:00:17] I fell in love with a Mexican girl

[00:00:23] Night time would find me in Rosa's cantina

[00:00:27] Music would play and Felina would whirl

[00:00:33] Blacker than night were the eyes of Felina

[00:00:37] Wicked and evil while casting a spell

[00:00:43] My love was deep for this Mexican maiden

[00:00:47] I was in love but in vain

[00:00:49] I could tell

[00:00:53] One night a wild young cowboy came in

[00:00:57] Wild as the West Texas wind

[00:01:06] Dashing and daring

[00:01:08] A drink he was sharing

[00:01:10] With wicked Felina

[00:01:11] The girl that I loved

[00:01:14] So in anger I

[00:01:16] Challenged his right for the love of this maiden

[00:01:20] Down went his hand for the gun that he wore

[00:01:26] My challenge was answered

[00:01:28] In less than a heart beat

[00:01:30] The handsome young stranger

[00:01:31] Lay dead on the floor

[00:01:36] Out through the back door of Rosa's I ran

[00:01:40] Out where the horses were tied

[00:01:49] I caught a good one

[00:01:51] It looked like it could run

[00:01:53] Up on it's back

[00:01:54] And away I did ride

[00:01:57] Just as fast as I

[00:01:59] Could from the West Texas town of El Paso

[00:02:03] Out to the bad lands of New Mexico

[00:02:09] Back in El Paso my life would be worthless

[00:02:13] Everything's gone in life nothing is left

[00:02:19] It's been so long

[00:02:21] Since I've seen the young maiden

[00:02:23] My love is stronger than my fear of death

[00:02:29] I saddled up and away I did go

[00:02:33] Riding alone in the dark

[00:02:42] Maybe tomorrow

[00:02:44] A bullet may find me

[00:02:46] Tonight nothing's worse than this

[00:02:48] Pain in my heart

[00:02:50] And at last here I

[00:02:52] Am on the hill overlooking El Paso

[00:02:56] I can see Rosa's cantina below

[00:03:02] My love is strong and pushes me onward

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

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

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

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

[00:03:26] I have to make it to Rosa's back door

[00:03:33] Something is dreadfully wrong for I feel

[00:03:36] A deep burning pain in my side

[00:03:45] Though I am trying

[00:03:47] To stay in the saddle

[00:03:49] I'm getting weary

[00:03:50] Unable to ride

[00:03:53] But my love for

[00:03:55] Felina is strong I rise where I've fallen

[00:03:59] Though I am weary I can't stop to rest

[00:04:06] I see the white puff of smoke from the rifle

[00:04:09] I feel the bullet go deep in my chest

[00:04:16] From out of nowhere Felina has found me

[00:04:19] Kissing my cheek as she kneels by my side

[00:04:26] Cradled by two loving arms that I'll die for

[00:04:29] One little kiss and Felina goodbye
