El Paso, El Paso,
Down in West Texas,
Old El Paso

At Rosa's cantina, met a Spanish girl
She was sweet petite, coal black hair with a curl
Her dancin' got me reelin', love the way she'd whirl
She could do a fine El Paso twirl

Now I'm singin'
El Paso, El Paso
Her body flexes
In El Paso

Titty up, hot mama, hot mama, wow wow
Titty up, hot mama, hot mama, wow wow
I won't give her a-way..

A wild cowboy impressed her
He rode in just like the wind
Tall and dashing, daring, unshaven with fuzz,
Yes he was..

With her, a drink he's sharing
And she acts like for him she's caring
So I got mad the way a cowboy does..

I challenged him in
El Paso, El Paso,
Our guns will fire in El Paso

Titty up, hot mama, hot mama, wow wow
Titty up, hot mama, hot mama, wow wow
I won't give her a-way..

And so we face each other, bravely standing in the street
I had never fired a gun in my life
But could not be a coward,
So now, I'm graved and flowered
And that sharpshooter's made my girl his wife

I'm ghostly singin'
El Paso, El Paso,
Up on boothill in El Paso

Titty up, hot mama, hot mama, wow wow
Titty up, hot mama, hot mama, wow wow
Couldn't dodge that bullet, no way
