El Paso testo

[i]Out in the West Texas town of El PasoI fell in love with a Mexican girlNighttime would find me in Rosa's cantinaMusic would play and Felina would whirl[i]Blacker than night were the eyes of FelinaWicked and evil while casting a spellMy love was deep for this Mexican maidenI was in love but in vain I could tell[ii]One night a wild young cowboy came inWild as the West Texas windDashing and daring, a drink he was sharingWith wicked Felina, the girl that I loved[iii]So 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 floor[i]Just for a moment I stood there in silenceShocked 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 run[ii]Out through the back door of Rosa'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 ride[iii]Just as fast as I could from the West Texas town of El PasoOut to the badlands of New Mexico[i]Back in El Paso my life would be worthlessEverything's gone in life, nothing is leftIt's been so long since I've seen the young maidenMy love is stronger than my fear of death[ii]I saddled up and away I did goRiding alone in the darkMaybe tomorrow a bullet will find meTonight nothing's worse than this pain in my heartI can see Rosa's cantina belowMy love is strong and it pushes me onwardDown off the hill to Felina I go[i]Off to my right I see five mounted cowboysOff to my left ride a dozen or moreShouting and shooting, I can't let them catch meI have to make it to Rosa's back door[ii]Something is dreadfully wrong, for I feelA deep burning pain in my sideI'm getting weary, unable to ride[iii]But my love for Felina is strong and I rise where I've fallenI see the white puff of smoke from the rifleI feel the bullet go deep in my chest[i]From out of nowhere Felina has found meKissing my cheek as she kneels by my sideCradled by two loving arms that I'll die forOne little kiss, then Felina goodbye.
