《El Paso》歌词

[00:00:00] El Paso - Sanchez

[00:00:03] Whoa

[00:00:06] Yeah

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

[00:00:19] I fell in love with a Mexican girl

[00:00:26] Night time would find me in Rosa's cantina

[00:00:31] Music would play and Felina would whirl

[00:00:38] Blacker than night were the eyes of Felina

[00:00:44] Wicked and evil while casting a spell

[00:00:51] My love was deep for this Mexican maiden

[00:00:56] I was in love but in vain

[00:00:59] I could tell

[00:01:03] One night a wild young cowboy came in

[00:01:08] Wild as the West Texas wind

[00:01:17] Dashing and daring

[00:01:19] A drink he was sharing

[00:01:22] With wicked Felina

[00:01:25] The girl that I loved

[00:01:28] So in anger I

[00:01:32] Challenged his right for the love of this maiden

[00:01:38] Down went his hand for the gun that he wore

[00:01:44] My challenge was answered

[00:01:47] In less than a heart beat

[00:01:50] The handsome young stranger

[00:01:52] Lay dead on the floor

[00:01:57] Just for a moment I stood there in silence

[00:02:02] Shocked by the foul evil deed I had done

[00:02:10] Many thoughts raced through my mind

[00:02:13] As I stood there

[00:02:15] I had but one chance and that was to run

[00:02:22] Out through the back door of Rosa's I ran

[00:02:27] Out where the horses were tied

[00:02:36] I caught a good one

[00:02:38] It looked like it could run

[00:02:41] Up on its back

[00:02:43] And away I did ride

[00:02:47] Just as fast as I

[00:02:51] Could from the West Texas town of El Paso

[00:02:57] Out to the bad lands of New Mexico

[00:03:04] Back in El Paso my life would be worthless

[00:03:09] Everything's gone in life nothing is left

[00:03:16] It's been so long

[00:03:18] Since I've seen this young maiden

[00:03:21] My love is stronger than my fear of death

[00:03:29] I saddled up and away I did go

[00:03:34] Riding alone in the dark

[00:03:42] Maybe tomorrow

[00:03:44] A bullet may find me

[00:03:47] Tonight nothing's worse than this

[00:03:50] Pain in my heart

[00:03:54] And at last here I

[00:03:57] Am on the hill overlooking El Paso

[00:04:03] I can see Rosa's cantina below

[00:04:10] My love is strong and it pushes me onward

[00:04:15] Down off the hill to Felina I go

[00:04:22] Off to my right I see five mounted cowboys

[00:04:28] Off to my left ride a dozen or more

[00:04:34] Shouting and shooting I can't let them catch me

[00:04:40] I have to make it to Rosa's back door

[00:04:47] Something is dreadfully wrong for I feel

[00:04:52] A deep burning pain in my side

[00:05:01] Though I am trying

[00:05:03] To stay in the saddle

[00:05:06] I'm getting weary

[00:05:08] Unable to ride

[00:05:12] But my love for

[00:05:15] Felina is strong and I rise where I've fallen

[00:05:21] Though I am weary I can't stop to rest

[00:05:28] I see the white puff of smoke from the rifle

[00:05:34] I feel the bullet go deep in my chest

[00:05:40] From out of nowhere Felina has found me

[00:05:46] Kissing my cheek as she kneels by my side

[00:05:53] Cradled by two loving arms that I'll die for

[00:05:58] One little kiss and Felina goodbye
