What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
From thirty thousand feet above
2
The desert floor, I see it there below
3
A city with a legend
4
The west Texas city of El Paso
5
Where long ago, I heard a song
6
About a Texas cowboy and a girl
7
And a little place called Rosa's
8
Where he used to go and watch this beauty whirl
9
I don't recall who sang the song
10
But I recall the story that I heard
11
And as I look down on the city
12
I remember each and every word
13
The singer sang about a jealous cowboy
14
And the way he used a gun
15
To kill another cowboy
16
Then he had to leave El Paso on the run
17
El Paso City by the Rio Grande
18
The cowboy lived and rode away
19
But love was strong, he couldn't stay
20
He rode back just to die in that El Paso sand
21
El Paso City by the Rio Grande
22
I try not to let you cross my mind
23
But still I find there's such a mystery
24
In the song that I don't understand
25
My mind is down there somewhere
26
As I fly above the badlands of New Mexico
27
I can't explain why I should know
28
The very trail he rode back to El Paso
29
Can it be that man can disappear
30
From life and live another time
31
And does the mystery deepen 'cause you think
32
That you yourself lived in that other time
33
Somewhere in my deepest thoughts
34
Familiar scenes and memories unfold
35
These wild and unexplained emotions
36
That I've had so long but I have never told
37
Like every time I fly up through the heavens
38
And I see you there below
39
I get the feeling sometime
40
In another world I lived in El Paso
41
El Paso City by the Rio Grande
42
Could it be that I could be
43
The cowboy in this mystery
44
That died there in that desert sand so long ago
45
El Paso City by the Rio Grande
46
A voice tells me to go and see
47
Another voice keeps tellin' me
48
Maybe death awaits me in El Paso
49
