Karaoke Track: El Paso by Marty Robbins (Monster Hits)

Out in the west Texas

Town of El Paso
Ifell in love

With a Mexican girl

Nigh11ime would find me
In Rose&#39;s Coniino

Music would play and
Filena would whirl

Blacker than night
Were the eyes of Filena

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 come in

Wild as

The west Texas wind

Dashing and daring,
A drink he was she ring

With wicked Filena,
The girl that I loved

So in anger
I challenged his right

For he love of his maiden
Down went his hand

For he gun ihaf he wore

My challenge

Was answered
In less than a heartbeat

The ho nd some

Young stronger
Lay dead on the floor

Just for a moment
I stood there in silence

Shocked by the foul
Evil deed I had done

Ma ny thoughis raced
Through my mind

As I stood there
I had but one chance
And that was to run

Out through the back door
Of Rose&#39;s I ran

Ouf where
The horses were tied

I caught a good one
It looked like it could run

Up on its back
And away I did ride

Just as fast as I could
From the west Texas

Town of El Poso

Out to the badlands
Of New Mexico

Back in El Paso
My life

Would be worthless
Everything&#39;s gone in life
Nothing is left

HJs been so long
Since I&#39;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 10 morrow

A bullet may find me
Tonig hf noihing&#39;s worse
Than his pain in my heart

And 01 lost here I am

On the hill

Overlooking El Paso
I can see

Rose&#39;s Ca nti na below

My love is sirong
And it pushes me onward

Down off the hill
To Filena I go

OH 10 my right I see
Five mounted cowboys

OH to my left ride

A dozen or more

Shoufing and shooting

I can&#39;t let them catch me
I have to make it

To Rose&#39;s back door

Something is
Dreadfully wrong for I feel

A deep burning pain
In my side

Though I am trying
To stay in ihe saddle

I&#39;m geifing weary
Unable to ride

But my love for
Fileno is strong

And I rise where I&#39;ve fallen
Though I am weary
I can&#39;t stop to rest

I see the white putt
Ot smoke trom the ritle

I feel the bullet
(30 deep in my chest

From out of nowhere
Fileno has found me

Kissing my cheek
As she kneels
By my side

Cradled by 1wo loving
Arms that I&#39;ll die for

One IiHle kiss
And Fileno,
Good bye
