Night time would find me in Rose's Cantina, music would play and Felina would whirl. Blacker than night were the eyes of Felina, weaving her evil while casting her spell. My love was strong for this Mexican maiden, I was in love but in vain I could tell. II Right then a wild young cowboy came in, wild as the west Texas wind. Dashing and daring, a drink he was sharing, with wicked Felina, the girl that I love. So in anger, I I challenged his right for the hand of this maiden, down went his hand for the gun that he wore. My challenge was answered in less than a heartbeat, the handsome young stranger lay dead on the floor. Just for a moment I stood there in silence, shocked by the foul evil deed I had done. Many thoughts raced through my mind as I stood there, I had but one chance and that was to run. II Out through the back door of Rose's I ran, out where the horses were tied. I picked a good one, he looked like he could run, up on his back and away I did ride. Just as fast as I could, INSTRUMENTAL I II SAM SONG CIRCLE 2014 6 June 24, 2014 I Out from the west Texas town of El Paso, up through the badlands of New Mexico. Back in El Paso my life would be worthless, everything's lost, nothing is left. / INSTRUMENTAL LINE / But it's been so long since I've seen the young maiden, my love is stronger than my fear of death. II I saddled up and away I did go, riding alone in the dark. Maybe tomorrow a bullet will find me, today nothing's worse than this pain in my heart. And at last her I am, I On a hill overlooking El Paso, I can see Rose's Cantina below. My love is strong and it pushes me onward, down off the hill to Felina 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've got to make it to Rose's back door. II Something is dreadfully 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, I Felina is strong and I rise where I've fallen, though I am weary I can't stop to rest. I see the white puff of smoke from the rifle, I feel the bullet go deep in my chest. From out of nowhere Felina has found me, kissing my cheek as she kneels by my side. Cradled by two loving arms that I'll die for, one little kiss and Felina goodbye.
