《El Paso》歌词

[00:00:00] El Paso - The Brothers Four

[00:00:09] Out in the west Texan town of El Paso

[00:00:12] I fell in love with a Mexican girl

[00:00:17] Nighttime would find me in Rosa's Cantina

[00:00:21] Music would play and Feleena would whirl

[00:00:26] Blacker than night were the eyes of Feleena

[00:00:29] Wicked and evil while casting a spell

[00:00:34] My love was deep for this Mexican maiden

[00:00:38] I was in love but in vain I could tell

[00:00:43] One night a wild young cowboy came in

[00:00:48] Wild as the west Texas wind

[00:00:56] Dashing and daring a drink he was sharing

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

[00:01:04] So in danger I challenged

[00:01:08] His right for the love of this maiden

[00:01:10] Down went his hand for the gun that he wore

[00:01:15] My challenege was answered in less than a heartbeat

[00:01:19] The handsome young stranger lay dead on the floor

[00:01:25] Just for a moment I stood there in silence

[00:01:28] Shocked by the foul deed I had done

[00:01:34] Many thoughts raced through my mind as I stood there

[00:01:37] I had but one chance and that was to run

[00:01:43] Out to the backdoor of Rosa's I ran

[00:01:48] Out where the horses were tied

[00:01:56] I caught a good one it looked like it could run

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

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

[00:02:07] From the west Texas town of El Paso

[00:02:10] Out to the badlands of New Mexico

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

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

[00:02:24] It's been so long since I've seen the young maiden

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

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

[00:02:38] Riding alone in the dark

[00:02:47] Maybe tomorrow a bullet would find me

[00:02:51] Tonight nothing's worse than this pain in my heart

[00:02:55] And at last here I am on the hill

[00:02:59] Overlooking El Paso I can see Rosa's Cantina below

[00:03:06] Off to my right I see five mounted cowboys

[00:03:10] Off to my left ride a dozen or more

[00:03:15] Shouting and shooting I can't let them catch me

[00:03:19] I have to make it to Rosa's backdoor

[00:03:24] Something is dreadfuly wrong for I feel

[00:03:30] A deep burning pain in my side

[00:03:37] Though I am trying to stay in the saddle

[00:03:41] I'm getting weary unable to ride

[00:03:45] But my love for Feleena is strong and

[00:03:50] I rise where I've fallen

[00:03:52] Though I am weary I can't stop to rest

[00:03:57] I see the white puff of smoke from the rifle

[00:04:01] I feel the bullet go deep in my chest

[00:04:08] From out of nowhere Feleena has found me

[00:04:12] Kissing my cheeks as she kneels by my side

[00:04:17] Cradled by two loving arms that I'll die for

[00:04:21] One little kiss then Feleena goodbye
