 Out in the West Texas town  El Paso
 I fell in love  a Mexican girl.
 Night-time would find  in Rosa's cantina;
 Music  play and Felina would whirl.
 
 Blacker than night  the eyes of Felina,
 Wicked and evil while  a spell.
 My love was deep  this Mexican maiden;
 I was in love but  vain, I could tell.
 
 One  a wild young cowboy came in,
 Wild  the West Texas wind.
 Dashing and daring,
  drink he was sharing
 With wicked Felina,
  girl that I loved.
 
 So in anger 
 
  his right for the love of this maiden.
 Down went his hand for  gun that he wore.
  challenge was answered in less than a heart-beat;
 The handsome  stranger lay dead on the floor.
 
 Just for a moment I stood  in silence,
 Shocked by the FOUL EVIL  I had done.
 Many thoughts raced  my mind as I stood there;
 I had but one chance and that was  run.
 
 Out through the back door of Rosa's I 
 Out where the horses  tied.
 I  a good one.
 It looked like  could run.
 Up on  back
 And  I did ride,
 
 Just  fast as I
 
 Could from the West Texas  of El Paso
  to the bad-lands of New Mexico.
 
 Back in El Paso my life would be 
 Everything's gone in  nothing is left.
 It's been so  since I've seen the young maiden
  love is stronger than my fear of death.
 
 I saddled up  away I did go,
 Riding alone  the dark.
 Maybe tomorrow
 A bullet  find me.
 Tonight nothing's worse than 
  in my heart.
 
 And at last  I
 
  on the hill overlooking El Paso;
 I can see Rosa's  below.
 My love  strong and it pushes me onward.
 Down off the hill to  I go.
 
 Off to my right I see five mounted 
 Off to  left ride a dozen or more.
 Shouting  shooting I can't let them catch me.
 I have to make it to Rosa's  door.
 
  is dreadfully wrong for I feel
 A deep burning pain in my 
  I am trying
 To  in the saddle,
 I'm getting weary,
 Unable to ride.
 
  my love for
 
 Felina is  and I rise where I've fallen,
 Though I am weary I can't stop  rest.
 I see the white puff of smoke from  rifle.
 I feel  bullet go deep in my chest.
 
 From out of nowhere Felina has found 
 Kissing my cheek as she kneels  my side.
 Cradled by two loving arms that  die for,
 One little kiss and  good-bye.
