El Paso The Brothers Four

[Verse 1]
Out in the West Texas town of El Paso
I fell in love with a Mexican girl
Nighttime would find me in Rosa's Cantina
Music would play and Feleena would whirl

[Verse 2]
Blacker than night were the eyes of Feleena
Wicked and evil while casting a spell
My love was strong for this Mexican maiden
I was in love, but in vain, I could tell

[Verse 3]
One night, a wild young cowboy came in
Wild as the West Texas wind
Dashing and daring, a drink he was sharing
With wicked Feleena, the girl that I love

[Verse 4]
So in anger, I challenged his right for the love of this maiden
Down went his hand for thе gun that he wore
My challengе was answered in less than a heartbeat
The handsome young stranger lay dead on the floor

[Verse 5]
Just for a moment, I stood there in silence
Shocked by the wild, 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
