Up on his back, Away I did ride…
2790
Just as fast as I could from the West Texas town of El Paso
2791
Out to the badlands of New Mexico
2792
Back in El Paso my life would be worthless
2793
Everything’s gone in life; nothing is left
2794
But it’s been so long since I’ve seen the young maiden
2795
My love is stronger than my fear of death…
2796
I saddled up and away I did go,
2797
Riding alone in the dark
2798
Maybe tomorrow a bullet may find me
2799
Tonight nothing’s worse than this pain in my heart
2800
And at last here I am on the hill overlooking El Paso
2801
I can see Rosa’s cantina below
2802
My love is strong and it pushes me onward,
2803
Down off the hill to Felina I go.
2804
Off to my right I see five mounted cowboys…
2805
Off to my left ride a dozen or more
2806
Shouting and shooting, I can’t let them catch me;
2807
I’ve got to make it to Rosa’s back door.
2808
Something is dreadfully wrong for I feel
