El Paso - Out On The Weekend

Giant Sand

Out in the West Texas town of El Paso - I fell in love with a Mexican girl. Nighttime would find me in Rose's Cantina, Music would play and Felina would twirl. One night a wild young cowboy came in - Wild as the West Texas wind. Dashing and daring, a drink they were sharing, With wicked Felina, the girl that I love. So in anger - I challenged his right for the heart of Felina Down went his hand for the gun that he wore. My challenge was answered, in no less than a heartbeat The handsome young stranger lay dead on the floor. Out through the back door of Rose's I ran, Out where the horses were tied. I found a good one; it looked like it could run, Up on its back and away I did ride ----> Now I think I’ll buy me a pick-up Make it out to L.A. Find a little place and try to fix up. Start a brand new day. She got pictures on the wall, they make me look up From her big brass bed. Now I'm running down the road trying to stay up Somewhere in her head. 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, I hear her callin'. See the lonely boy, out on the weekend - Trying to make it pay. Can't relate to joy, he tries to speak and - Can't begin to say. Something is dreadfully wrong for I feel as I crumble A deep burning pain in my side and blood everywhere I’m crumbled I see Felina she kneels down by my side Once more in the arms of my loved one and kiss Felina goodbye See the lonely boy, out on the weekend - Trying to make it pay. Can't relate to joy, he tries to speak and - Can't begin to say. (x4) It works and it's --> Wild!
