[00:07.907] Out in New Mexico many long years ago
[00:11.394] There in a shack on the desert one night in a storm
[00:19.096] Amid streaks of lightning and loud desert thunder
[00:22.721] To a young Mexican couple a baby was born
[00:30.353] Just as the baby cried thunder and lightning died
[00:34.089] Moon gave it's light to the world and the stars did the same
[00:41.609] Mother and father both proud of the daughter
[00:45.321] That heaven had sent them Felena was this baby's name
[00:52.932] When she was seventeen bothered by crazy dreams
[00:56.548] She ran away from the shack and left them to roam
[01:03.940] Father and mother both asked one another
[01:07.668] What made her run away what made Felena leave home
[01:15.092] Tired of the desert nights fartherly grieved to strife
[01:18.876] She ran away late one night in the moon's golden beam
[01:26.100] She didn't know where she'd go but she'd get there
[01:30.012] And she would find happiness if she would follow her dream
[01:37.444] After she ran away she went to Santa Fe
[01:41.132] And in the year that she stayed there she learned about life
[01:48.605] In just a little while she learned that with her smile
[01:52.326] She could have pretty clothes she could be any man's wife
[01:59.790] Rich men romanced her they dined and they danced her
[02:03.318] She understood men and she treated them all just the same
[02:10.534] A form that was fine and rare dark shining glossy hair
[02:14.678] Lovely to look at Felena was this woman's name
[02:22.206] Restless in Santa Fe she had to get away
[02:25.854] To any town where the lights had a much brighter glow
[02:33.110] One cowboy mentioned the town of El Paso
[02:36.806] They never stopped dancing and money like whiskey would flow
[02:44.127] She bought a one way a ticket from Santa Fe
[02:47.910] Three days and nights on a stage with a rest now and then
[02:55.134] She didn't mind that she knew she would find that
[02:58.918] Her new life would be more exciting than where she had been
[03:06.374] The stage made it's last stop up there on the mountain top
[03:09.990] To let her see all the lights at the foot of the hill
[03:17.478] Her world was brighter and deep down inside her
[03:21.086] An uncontrolled beating her young heart just wouldn't be still
[03:28.502] She got a hotel a room at the Lily Belle
[03:32.190] Quickly she changed to a form fitting black satin dress
[03:39.502] Every man stopped to stare at this form fine and rare
[03:43.334] Even the women remarked of the charm she possessed
[03:50.878] Dancing and laughter was what she was after
[03:53.928] And Rosa's Cantina had lights with love in the gleam
[04:01.890] That's what she hunted and that's what she wanted
[04:05.392] Rosa's was one place a nice girl would never be seen
[04:12.896] It was the same way it was back in Santa Fe
[04:16.537] Men would make fools of themselves at the thought of romance
[04:23.624] Rosa took heed of the place was in need of
[04:27.170] This kind of excitement so she paid Felena to dance
[04:34.618] A year passed or maybe more and then through the swinging doors
[04:38.274] Came a young cowboy so tall and so handsomely dressed
[04:45.578] This one was new in town hadn't been seen around
[04:49.315] He was so different he wasn't like all of the rest
[04:56.554] Feleena danced close to him then threw a rose to him
[05:00.243] Quickly he walked to her table and there he sat down
[05:07.410] And in a day or so wherever folks would go
[05:11.210] They'd see this young cowboy showing Felena the town
[05:18.676] Six weeks he went with her each minute spent with her
[05:22.138] But he was insanely jealous of glances she'd give
[05:29.546] Inside he was a hurting from all of her flirting
[05:33.098] But that was her nature and that was the way that she lived
[05:40.322] She flirted one night it started a gun fight
[05:44.114] And after the smoke cleared away on the floor lay a man
[05:51.114] Felena's young lover had shot down another
[05:54.946] And he had to leave there so out through the back door he ran
[06:02.458] The next day at five o'clock she heard a rifle shot
[06:06.162] Quickly she ran to the door that was facing the pass
[06:13.330] She saw her cowboy her wild riding cowboy
[06:17.122] Low in the saddle her cowboy was riding in fast
[06:24.538] She ran to meet him to kiss and to greet him
[06:28.147] He saw her and motioned her back with a wave of his hand
[06:35.396] Bullets were flying Felena was crying
[06:39.011] As she saw him fall from the saddle and into the sand
[06:46.759] Felena knelt near him to hold and to hear him
[06:50.391] As she felt the warm blood that flowed from the wound in his side
[06:57.619] He raised to kiss her and she heard him whisper
[07:01.284] Never forget me Felena it's over goodbye
[07:08.463] Quickly she grabbed for the six gun that he wore
[07:12.007] And screaming in anger and placing the gun to her breast
[07:19.391] Bury us both deep and maybe we'll find peace
[07:23.118] And pulling the trigger she fell cross the dead cowboy's chest
[07:30.271] Out in El Paso whenever the wind blows
[07:33.814] If you listen closely at night you'll hear in the wind
[07:41.207] A woman is crying it's not the wind sighing
[07:44.887] Old timer's tell you Felena is calling for him
[07:52.055] You'll hear them talking and you'll hear them walking
[07:55.807] You'll hear them laugh and you'll look but there's no one around
[08:02.999] Don't be alarmed there is really no harm there
[08:06.847] It's only the young cowboy showing Felena the town
