Out in the west Texas town of El Paso

I fell in love with a Mexican girl

Nighttime would find me at Rosa's Cantina

Music would play and Felina would whirl

Black as the night were the eyes of Felina

Wicked and evil while casting a spell

My love was strong for this Mexiacn maiden

I was in love, but in vain, I could tell



One night a wily young cowboy came in

Wild as the west Texas wind

Dashing and daring a drink he was sharing

With wicked Felina, the girl that I loved



So in anger

I challenged his right for the heart of the maiden

Down went his hand for the gun that he wore

My challenge was answered in less than a heartbeat

The handsome young stranger lay dead on the floor

Just for a moment I stood there in silence

Shocked at the foul, evil deed I had done

Many thoughts raced through my mind as I stood there

I had but one chance, and that was to run



Out through the back door of Rosa's I ran

Out where the horses were tied

I picked a good one, it looked like he could run

Up on his back and away I did ride



Just as fast as I

Could from the west Texas town of El Paso

Out through the Badlands of New Mexico



Back 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 dark

Maybe tomorrow a bullet may find me

But anything's worth this pain in my heart



Now at last here I

Am on the hill overlooking El Paso

I can see Rosa's Cantina below

My love is strong and it pushes me onward

Down off the hill to Felina I go

Off to my right I see five mounted cowboys

Off to my left ride a dozen or more

Shouting and shooting, I can't let them catch me

I've got to make it to Rosa's back door



Suddenly something is wrong, for I feel

A deep burning pain in my side

It's getting harder to stay in the saddle

I'm getting weary, unable to ride



But my love for

Felina is strong, and I rise where I've fallen

Though I am weary I can't stop to rest

I see the white puff of smoke from the rifle

I feel the bullet go deep in my chest

From out of nowhere Felina has found me

Kissing my cheek as she kneels by my side

Cradled by two loving arms that I'll die for

One little kiss and Felina

Good

Bye
