Out in the West Texas town of El Paso - I fell in love with a

Out through the back door of Rose's I ran, Out where the horses

From her big brass bed.

The woman I'm thinking of, she loved me all up

But I'm so down today she's so fine, she's in my mind,

Once more in the arms of my loved one and kiss Felina goodbye
