《El Paso (Live at Civic Hall， Rotterdam， Holland 5/11/1972)》歌词

[00:00:13] Out in the west texas town of el paso I fell in love with a mexican girl

[00:00:22] Nighttime would fine me in roses cantina

[00:00:25] Music would play and felina would whirl

[00:00:31] Black as the night were the eyes of felina

[00:00:34] Wicked and evil while casting a spell

[00:00:40] My love was strong for this mexican maiden

[00:00:43] I was in love but in vain I could tell

[00:00:49] One night a wild young cowboy came in wild as the west texas wind

[00:00:57] Dashing and daring a drink he was sharing

[00:01:03] With wicked felina the girl that I love

[00:01:07] So in anger I challenged his right for the love of this maiden

[00:01:12] Down went his hand for the gun that he wore

[00:01:17] My challenge was answered in less than a heartbeat

[00:01:21] The handsome young stranger lay dead on the floor

[00:01:26] Just for a moment I stood there in silence

[00:01:30] Shocked by the foul evil deed I had done

[00:01:35] Many thoughts ran through my mind as I stood there

[00:01:38] I had but one chance and that was to run

[00:01:44] Out through the back door of roses I ran out where the horses were tied

[00:01:49] I picked a good one he looked like he could run

[00:01:58] Up on his back and away I did ride

[00:02:01] Just as fast as I could from the west texas town of el paso

[00:02:07] Out thru the badlands of new mexico

[00:02:12] Back in el paso my life would be worthless

[00:02:16] Everythings gone in life nothing is left

[00:02:21] But its been so long since I've seen the young maiden

[00:02:24] My love is stronger that my fear of death

[00:02:30] I saddled up and away I did go riding alone in the dark

[00:02:41] Maybe tomorrow a bullet may find me

[00:02:44] Tonight nothings worse than this pain in my heart

[00:02:47] And as last here I am on the hill overlooking el paso

[00:02:52] I can see roses cantina below

[00:02:58] My love is strong and it pushes me onward down off the hill to felina I go

[00:03:06] Off to my right I see five mounted cowboys

[00:03:10] Off to my left ride a dozen or more

[00:03:15] Shouting and shooting I can't let them catch me

[00:03:18] I've got to make it to roses back door

[00:03:24] Something is dreadfully wrong for I feel a deep burning pain in my

[00:03:34] Its getting harder to stay in the saddle

[00:03:38] I'm getting weary unable to ride

[00:03:41] But my love for felina is strong and I rise where I've fallen

[00:03:46] Though I am weary I can't stop to rest

[00:03:52] I see the white puff of smoke from the rifle

[00:03:55] I feel the bullet go deep in my chest

[00:04:00] From out of nowhere felina has found me

[00:04:03] Kissing my cheek as she kneels by my side

[00:04:09] Cradled by two loving arms that I'll die for

[00:04:12] One little kiss and felina good bye
