Roy Drusky - El Paso слова песни
Out in the west Texas town of El Paso I fell in love with a Mexican girlNight time would find me in Rose`s CantinaMusic would play and Felina would whirlBlacker than night were the eyes of Felina,Wicked and evil while casting their spellMy love was deep for this Mexican maiden,I was in love, but in vain i could tellOne night a wild young cowboy came in Wild as the west Texas windDashing and daring, a drink he was sharingWith wicked Felina the girl that I lovedSo in anger I challenged his right for the love of this maidenDown went his hand for the gun that he woreMy challenge was answered in less than a heartbeatThe handsome young stranger lay dead on the floorJust for a moment I stood there in silence Shocked by the foul evil deed I had doneMany thoughts raced through my mind as I stood thereI had but one chance and that was to runOut through the back door of Rose`s I ranOut where the horses were tiedI caught a good one, It looked like it could runUp on its back and away I did rideJust as fast as I could from the west Texas town of El PasoOut to the badlands of New MexicoBack in El Paso, my life would be worthless,Everything`s gone in life, nothing is left.It`s been so long since I`ve seen the young maiden,My love is stronger than my fear of death.I saddled up and away I did go Riding alone in the darkMaybe tomorrow a bullet may find meTonight nothin`s worse than this pain in my heartAnd at last here I am on the hill overlooking El Paso I can see Rose`s Cantina belowMy love is strong and it pushes me onward Down off the hill to Felina I goOff to my right, I see five mounted cowboys Off to my left ride a dozen or moreShouting and shooting I can`t let them catch meI have to make it to Rose`s back doorSomething is dreadfully wrong for I feelA deep, burning pain in my sideThough I am trying to stay in the saddleI`m getting weary, unable to rideBut my love for Felina is strongAnd I rise where I`ve fallen,Though I am weary, I can`t stop to restI see the white puff of smoke from the rifle I feel the bullet go deep in my chestFrom out of nowhere Felina has found meKissing my cheek as she kneels by my sideCradled by two loving arms that I`ll die for One little kiss and Felina goodbye
