Out In The West Texas Town Of El Paso I Fell In Love With A Mexican Girl

Nighttime Would Find Me In Rosa's Cantina Music Would Play And Feleena Would Whirl

Blacker Than Night Were The Eyes Of Feleena Wicked And Evil While Casting A Spell

My Love Was Deep For This Mexican Maiden I Was In Love But In Vain I Could Tell

One Night A Wild Young Cowboy Came In Wild As The West Texas Wind

Dashing And Daring A Drink He Was Sharing With Wicked Feleena The Girl That I Loved

So In Danger I Challenged His Right For The Love Of This Maiden

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 Would Find Me

Tonight Nothing's Worse Than This Pain In My Heart

And 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 Feleena 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 Have To Make It To Rosa's Backdoor

Something Is Dreadfuly Wrong For I Feel A Deep Burning Pain In My Side

Though I Am Trying To Stay In The Saddle I'm Getting Weary Unable To Ride

But My Love For Feleena Is Strong And I Rise Where I've Fallen

Though I Am Weary I Can's Stop To Rest

I See Th
