[00:10.86] Out in the West Texas town of El Paso
[00:14.06] I fell in love with a Mexican girl
[00:20.21] Night time would find me in Rosie's cantina
[00:24.09] Music would play, and Felina would whirl
[00:30.84] One night a wild young cowboy came in
[00:34.47] Wild as the West Texas wind
[00:41.48] Dashing and daring, a drink he was sharing
[00:45.08] With wicked Felina, the girl that I loved
[00:49.47] So, in anger I challenged his right for the heart of Felina
[00:55.51] Down went his hand for the gun that he wore
[01:02.20] My challenge was answered in less than a heartbeat
[01:06.28] The handsome young stranger lay dead on the floor.
[01:12.41] Out through the back door of Rosie's I ran
[01:15.76] Out where the horses were tied
[01:23.30] I caught a good one, it looked like it could run
[01:27.27] Up on its back, and away I did ride.
[01:33.59] Now I think I'll find me a pick-up
[01:37.65] Make it out to L.A.
[01:44.04] Find a little place and try to fix up.
[01:48.78] Start a brand new day.
[01:54.66][05:00.11][05:41.59]
[02:24.29] She got pictures on the wall, they make me look up
[02:31.88] From her big brass bed.
[02:38.10] Now I'm running down the road trying to stay up
[02:46.54] Somewhere in her head.
[02:52.81] The woman I'm thinking of, she loved me all up
[03:00.02] But I'm so down today
[03:06.15] She's so fine she's in my mind.
[03:10.57] I hear her callin'.
[03:18.15][04:25.89] See the lonely boy, out on the weekend
[03:25.29][04:32.79] Trying to make it pay.
[03:32.49] Can't relate to joy, he tries to speak and
[03:39.78] Can't begin to say.
[03:47.49] Something is dreadfully wrong, as I crumple
[03:54.36] There is pain in my side and blood everywhere
[04:03.14] I'm crumpled
[04:05.92] And I feel Felina she kneels down by my side
[04:14.00] Once more in the arms of my loved one
[04:18.41] Then kiss Felina goodbye
[04:40.01] He can't relate to joy, he tries to speak and
[04:47.52] He can't begin to say.
